About this model

This is a very simple boat your kid (or even you) can play with in a pool or a bathtub. The original model needed you to tape a rubber band to the shaft but I found that it didn't work well. I added a small tab which made it much easier to attach the band. You can then wind it up, put the boat on the water and release it.
