Gondola

The gondola ribs and bottom were made from plywood and the sides were made from masonite ripped down to six inch widths. Casters were mounted on the bottom of the boat so it could move. To keep it moving back and forth in a straight line a single track, made from a 1x2 ripped in half, was mounted to the floor and angle iron was attached to the bottom of the boat to keep it on the track. To move the boat cable was attached to the front and back and the cables were attached to a hand cranks.
