2022 Xplore Engineering
William Oak ad his mom Too Hyun take part in Building and Racing a Sailboat workshop on the second day of Xplore Engineering on North Campus on Friday, July 1, 2022, in Ann Arbor.
In the workshop students constructed their own small wooden sailboat which they then got to race in the Lurie Reflecting Pool. They were given time to determine if their models would sink or float and how to make adjustments to utilize the wind for maximum speed.
