I’m trying to get better at building stuff in TOTK - I have made boats using a plank + fans + steering stick, and those work great. However, I’m at a backpack korok and need to get across a large body of water. The materials provided are a bunch of planks and wheels. I could take out some Zonai devices but I’m running low on fans and I feel like there must be some way to make a propeller or paddle boat or something like that. Post your boat builds here to inspire and maybe get inspired by others!
I saw this one trick before I left reddit. They attached food to an arrow. Fired from one korok to the other. Attached the korok to the attached food. Reversed the food/koroks time to where the original arrow was fired. Try that if you’re low on devices
Rather than using your food for this trick, just use a wood pile. If you are running low, just cut down a tree and get more.
Woah! Yeah rewind is incredible
Paddle boats are definitely possible, but they can be very wonky. I think they work best when you put a stabilizer on the boat proper of you have one. Otherwise the paddles tend to rock the boat.
For paddles, you can just attach planks to large wheels on either side of your boat.
Yeah I just attached planks to the wheels and it was very slow/wonky, the korok made some distressed noises… but it worked!
Two fans on a plank with a steering stick are pretty much the most cost-efficient boat you can build. You can try to get creative using a big wheel to make a paddle similar to a steam boat, but in my experience those don’t work very well. Maybe a stabilizer could help.
