      So I think the little bit they added is still there, but it just wasn’t nearly enough. TBF, there’s nothing inherently “wrong” with making a boat wider rather than deeper (e.g. the aforementioned partyboats), but as they saw it doesn’t scale quite how you’d think, and much of the benefit they got from the pontoons that did work would have been there even if they’d left it flat.

      Also, I guess the apparent half-assery is part of the appeal? I am not familiar with this Emily. I kind of assumed it was going to be an Emily Calandrelli video, but then I’m a dad who’s watched a LOT of kids’ Netflix.

        Her videos used to be mostly about 3D printing Iron Man suits, but she found a (likely more profitable) niche doing sillier things with 3d printers and her engineering knowledge.
