In a collaboration with tominator, I bring to you the watercraft challenge! Who ever can design the best vehicle that can float on water that best balances design and functionality will be crowned the winner.

1st place will receive 7 five-star ratings, 2nd will receive 5, and 3rd will receive 3. Everyone else will receive 2 for their participation.

I will be judging functionality while tominator and I will collaborate on judging design.

Functionality will be judged on:
Speed: 10 pts Max
Control: 10 pts Max
Extra gizmos: 1 pt per moving part Ex. If you have a 4 rotator retractable gear, you get 4 pts
Bugs: 1 pt deduction per bug

Good Luck, Have Fun, and Please Rate! We need to keep this on the top rated for the longest time possible! Entries are due in May 15th. Any entries after that will not be judged.

Notice: Extra gizmos must be functional! If you put 5 rotators on and they do nothing but spin, that doesn't count

    So this one is finished and I'm waiting to see what people think, I've had a go with the others and think the gunboat is pretty good and the seastork is an excellent concept.
