Description

I thought it would be fun to create a couple of bath toys for my kids. My kids are really into boats, especially bath boats :) This bath boat was created for them. It is a pretty rugged "heavy" boat. I printed it with Inland PLA+ so it is a little on the heavy side. It floats well but the side floats can be snapped off with enough effort. So they may have to be a little careful with this version of the boat. I will make some changes and post a more Rugged version of the boat. Also I am creating different engines for the mid section recess of the boat that kids can change out. The boat is only functional from an imagination perspective :) There are no moving parts on this model. I will post these additional components and the Rugged version of the boat soon. I hope you all have fun with this model :D

This model should be printed with a Raft or Brim. The side floats have a tendency to pull up if there is no underlying support. 

Reducing the infill on this print will also make it more buoyant.

I printed this with the following settings. 

Bed Temp: 65 - 70c

Nozzle Temp 200c

Resolution .15 - Should print fine with .2

Print Speed - 50mm/s
