Hi

Design your own boat! it is great fun you can us hull designer from Carlson design http://www.carlsondesign.com/

The program will give you dxfs that you can import to AutoCad

: Hi, I am a 17 year old High School Cad student. This year, for our final
: project in my CAD class, we have to construct boats/canoes/kayaks. The
: size limitations on our boats is 14 foot long, 28 inches wide, and as tall
: as we want it. Now for the tricky part. They have to be constructed
: entirely out of cardboard. Do any of you seasoned kayak designers have
: plans for a kayak that would be able to be constructed out of cardboard?
: Since we cant use glue, only duck tape, this adds to the degree of
: challenge of our project. The kayak I need to build has to hold 2 people
: also. Any plans/sketches would be greatly appreciated. I have autocad R14
: on my home computer, though I mainly use Mechanical Desktop at school.
: Thanks.
