This video explains a simple way to calculate the waterline for your cardboard boat. This method works well for most boats that do not have noses that coming out of the water at a angle. The video is meant as a fallow up to my how to build a cardboard boat video and should help new builders understand more about boats. Here is the math I used bellow if you need it... • 1. Calculate square ft of boats bottom • 2. Total up weight of people who will be in boat and the boat • 3. Divide total weight by 62.43 to get cubic ft needed to hold boat up • 4. Take cubic feet(step 3) and divide by Square ft (Step 1) this gives water line in ft • 5. Divide by .083 to get inches for water line • Link to my cardboard boat book • https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CCT2JV1G • Please subscribe :-)
