I know other people have done this, but I found a Tuggy sandbox on the side of the road earlier this year and decided to motorize it. This is the build and testing video, we might take it on some further adventures once I iron out a few issues!
This version of the sandbox is originally intended to not float (apparently earlier designs did and the company got scared of lawsuits). Fortunately it will still float with the addition of some foam and a solid bottom.
I also added a horn, backup paddle, and some navigation lights (not shown in the video, I must have forgotten to film that). Once the registration comes back, this should be a fully legal motor boat!
