Attach the propeller to the boat with a rubber band, turn the propeller to store energy, set it in the bath and let it go!
This whimsical design is based on one of my children's wooden toys. It's easy to print and loads of fun. I created this because I thought it would be fun to print in multiple colors on my Prusa Core One INDX 8T, but if you have a single-color printer it will work just as well.
If you print this, please show off the colors and styling you choose!

Parts
(1) Propeller
(1) Boat
Assembly
Place rubber band over attachment points at the stern (rear) of the boat. Put a twist on one side of the rubber band, fold the rubber band over, and secure it again across the attachment points. You'll now have (4) pieces of rubber between the attachment points.
Thread the propeller through the loops of rubber band, manipulating the rubber band such that one piece of rubber is placed at each 90-degree bend of the propeller.
Other tips
Layer height: 0.20mm
Supports: .3mf includes fin supports (recommended), print them the same color as the boat hull in order to avoid scarring, otherwise you must generate supports for parts of the hull, rubber band attachment pints, and steering wheel
