Land yachts

Aim
To get the furtherest using the wind as your only accelerator.

Equipment
1 trolley
Cardboard
Paper (1 meter squared)
Cellotape
String
Scissors

My plan


A part of the cardboard will be rolled up like a tube and cello taped shut. it will then be cello taped to the trolley and just to stabilize it a bit more a string will be going from the top to all around the trolley. Then a half circle will be made of the cardboard to cello tape the top of the paper mast to it. 2 holes will be punctured into the middle of the hole, as small as possible so a string can go in and around the cardboard pole. If possible make another stabilizer (half circle) with the cardboard for the bottom.
