Hello everyone! My friends and I are currently working on a cardboard and duct tape boat for a physics project at our high school. We are building a massive 15' long, 6' wide, and 4’ deep pirate ship using ONLY cardboard and duct tape. That means no glues or sealants of any type. After spending vast amounts of money on different brands of duct tape, we finally came across the amazing Gorilla tape. The entire group has fallen in love with the product. We have so far used twelve roles of Gorilla tape just for the basic structure of the ship. We are the first group given the privilege of having more than two members in the group in the entire history of the physics class at our school. Normally the groups are composed of only one or two members. There are six members, including me, that have to paddle this ship 50 yards in the school pool while racing other projects in a time trial without sinking. We started a few weekends ago and we are almost half-complete with the middle section. As you will see, there is still much to be done. We would very much appreciate feedback. Here are a few pictures:
