Set sail on creativity! This clever kit includes everything needed to transform an everyday floating object—like a stick, log, or bottle—into a functioning sailboat. Using the included sail, mast, rudder, and elastic bands, young engineers can design, test, and re-launch their very own homemade vessel.
A 10-meter water-repellent leash ensures your boat won’t drift out into the big lake without you—and the sail is water-repellent too, making this kit perfect for real outdoor experimentation.
Designed by Koens & Middelkoop, the components are made from quality, eco-minded materials including FSC-certified beechwood, polyester, and steel, all packaged in recyclable kraft card.
