Jamal’s Boat

Voyage 1

• About Us

  Jamal’s Boat is the product of joint efforts between the 5th grade students at Lewis and Clark Elementary School, in partnership with Columbia River Maritime Museum (CRMM). We named our miniboat after, Jamal, the name of one of the student’s original characters they created. Jamal is a rich monkey who wears a crown, has massive abs, and wears a fancy watch. Jamal has become almost like a mascot for the whole class.

  Throughout our project, we hope to learn about ocean currents, different types of boats, and expand knowledge of maritime history and jobs.

  We would like to thank Norton Lilly for helping us coordinate our deployment and all of our donors that make this program possible!

  Our hope is that Jamal’s Boat lands in Japan. Our class’s favorite activity throughout this process has been sanding the miniboat.
  
  Stay tuned for more updates as they develop!
