	One Truth For All
		This is what works in a cardboard boat: a pointy end (to keep you going straight ahead), a wide flat bottom (to keep you stable), and sides that are high enough to keep the water out but low enough to allow you to paddle.
		Cardboard boats (within the parameters of this contest) are best paddled with a pair of hand paddles, rather than a canoe paddle or a kayak paddle, because they have very little underwater to keep the canoe pointed straight ahead, so the two hand paddles makes sure each stroke moves you forward, rather than turning you.
		So the cardboard boat building continues, with minor interruptions for purchase of items like twine and a very long ruler (I can use just about any size of metal ruler, if you're casting about for somebody to take some of them off your hands, by the way, not that anybody ever is).
