Cargo Securement

Keep The Road Safe

I am going on a field trip to an amusement park in two days, and am bringing in my phone and wallet.I am wearing cargo shorts.These are my ideas, but any others would be appreciated.
-wear a fanny pack(no way this is happening.Im a guy)
-bring in a drawstring bag(my teacher recommended that we dont bring bags)
-give it to my friends mom who is my chaperone(might do this)
-put it into one of my velcro pockets(we argoing to a park with a lot of looping roller coasters, including a standup one.The velcro does not cover the entire width of the pocket.My dad reccomended that i do this.)
-sit on it(I do not want to crack my phones screen)

What do you guys think, and an idea would be appreciated!

as i already told you…
-put it in the velcro pocket and if you don’t feel like its secure enough then put a safety pin on each side.
-leave it with your friend’s mom
-LEAVE IT HOME.
(you don’t even need your wallet just bring your money)

I need to design a remote controlled sailing boat that can carry a lot of weight but will need to sail upwind and in shallow waters

You need a moveable centerboard that you can raise and lower remotely. You will need it down while sailing upwind, half-down when crosswind, and up when downwind.
Diagram and explanation http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centreboard

An alternative that might be easier to handle is leeboards http://www.diy-tris.com/2012/articles/1-leeboards-why.htm (one on each side of the boat, you lower the one on the downwind side, and raise the other)

Centreboard – you have to build a waterproof box in the middle of the boat to hold the board.
Leeboard – no box required, but an axle through the die of the boat, and it needs to be strong. You have two of them, so your remote control has to choose which one to have down according to which tack you are on.

Note that you cannot simultaneously have (a) shallow draft and (b) go upwind. If the water is so shallow that you cannot have the board down, you must approach that place from upwind.

>What sail boat design has a maximum buoyancy and minimal draft but can still sail upwind ok?<
That would be the famous Thames Sailing Barge http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thames_sailing_barge – capable of carrying 80 tons of cargo onto any flat beach.
