This boat was put together in about 10 minutes. Evidenced by the fact that it has a sail made from a stick pushed through a piece of newspaper. Apart from being a good name for a jazz album the Rectangular Knight is notable for the yellow red colour combination and the odd yet surprisingly successful ’90 deg. out of kilter’ catamaran hull, the fragment of shell as rudder and of coarse the little plastic space man knight found in the sand. I am not sure how long a news paper sail would last but this little vessel quickly disappeared from sight out into Botany Bay.
