The Da Vinci Series Paddleboat by Academy is a fascinating model kit. Inspired by Leonardo da Vinci’s original design for a water-powered boat. Da Vinci’s innovative design was ahead of its time. Showcasing his deep understanding of mechanics and propulsion. This paddleboat features paddle wheels and blades that are contoured for efficient propulsion. Similar to modern paddle-powered vessels, yet with a historical twist that highlights Da Vinci’s genius.

The boat’s power is transferred through a system of gears and sprockets. Working in conjunction with a sawtooth wheel mechanism, a signature feature of many of Da Vinci’s inventions. The mechanical spring in the model provides the propulsion needed to move the boat across the surface of the water. Offering a hands-on demonstration of how Da Vinci’s designs could function in the real world.

This kit requires no glue, paint or batteries, making it a hassle-free and enjoyable assembly process. Suitable for ages 14+. The paddleboat kit offers both a challenging and educational experience for those interested in historical inventions, engineering and mechanics. Once assembled, the paddleboat can actually float on water, making it a unique and impressive display piece.

The Da Vinci Series Paddleboat allows enthusiasts to explore Da Vinci’s mechanical innovations while creating a functional model that brings history to life.
