Featherlight Fountain
These Fountains must be built very flimsey!
There's been a few pics where they've hit trees, posts and other vertical imovable objects, I would like to think a substantially built boat would glance off rather than just open up down the centre...very suspect, maybe they're made of paper mache 
PS. Cookee, why did you only post them on RIBnet?
