Summary

A floating pontoon and boat propeller to integrate with the ThinkFun Maker Studio sets. Learn about buoyancy and make cool floating creations! Mechanically powered boats can be made using the rubber band parts and rods from the official kits, or with a waterproof motor if you're up for that challenge.
