Paper Boats: Fold & Float Your Own Origami Boats (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780645883909)

Fold a great selection of origami rowboats, speedboats, liners, sailboats, and even an aircraft carrier where you can land your paper aircraft. Most of the models are easy to build so even the smallest deckhand can learn the ropes and become a paper boat folding expert.

From simple to moderately complex, there are 11 unique boats to make plus a seaplane with water-skis. Not only square, but different-sized paper is used such as A4 / Letter so you can make bigger boats and boats with different proportions.

Spray your paper boats with lacquer spray or fold them using wax paper, paper-backed with aluminum foil or plastic sheeting and you'll have some great models that will last on the water and be ideal for water races in the swimming pool, bathtub, river or sea.
