Boat Wreck Water Feature
From fixing a water drainage issue to a fully functional water feature! This was a fun project to work on with the class because it really was a “start to finish” project. It’s really rewarding to see the final puzzle piece come together and fully appreciate the hard work that went into it.
Matthew’s fishing boat has made its rounds around the nursery for a few years: starting in the back waiting to be taken out on the water again, then becoming a koi fish pond, then a planter, and finally, its new home as a waterfall feature. Here the kids are watching as the boat is being pumped full of water to make sure it is sitting at the correct incline.
The Boat
After placing the boat between two boulders, we wanted to give the illusion of a boat wreck on shore. Here you see the boat filling with water and inspiring the future rocky waterfall coming from the boat.
