Sailboat continued

This week we continued with the sailboat/aquatic vehicle with the testing.  The boats had to stay afloat and upright in the water under several conditions:  standing still, with a fan blowing the sail, and finally with "weights" or rocks.  Most boats tipped early on, but eventually everyone got their boats to at least float with the fan blowing.
