Begin cutting a 6-inch piece of pool noodle in half lengthwise. Next, create two sails by cutting foam sheets into a triangle and a rectangle. Slice two slits in the foam, and run a straight straw through the slits to achieve a curved look. Cut one more slit into the top of the rounded side of the pool noodle, and place the straw in it to secure your sail. Use pool noodle to propel the boats across the pool.
