[TOTK] show me your boats (beehaw.org)

I’m trying to get better at building stuff in TOTK - I have made boats using a plank + fans + steering stick, and those work great. However, I’m at a backpack korok and need to get across a large body of water. The materials provided are a bunch of planks and wheels. I could take out some Zonai devices but I’m running low on fans and I feel like there must be some way to make a propeller or paddle boat or something like that. Post your boat builds here to inspire and maybe get inspired by others!

Paddle boats are definitely possible, but they can be very wonky. I think they work best when you put a stabilizer on the boat proper of you have one. Otherwise the paddles tend to rock the boat.

For paddles, you can just attach planks to large wheels on either side of your boat.

Two fans on a plank with a steering stick are pretty much the most cost-efficient boat you can build. You can try to get creative using a big wheel to make a paddle similar to a steam boat, but in my experience those don't work very well. Maybe a stabilizer could help.
