Sailboat Race

Today in Technology, each group made a sailboat and raced them in a gutter. I was partners with one of my friends- Victoria Oliver. We had an idea of making a fan to propell the sailboat, but we only had a file folder, aluminum foil, masking tape, and an endless supply of paperclips. We had to change our design to a regular sail on top. But, in the back, we put a dent to catch the wind and push the boat. Our design looked tops, but the problem was we didn't measure the gutter correctly. Our boat didn't fit! I was sad... but it was a cool experience! :)
