Minifigures holding up a ship

Steps

  • Step 1

    Grab some bricks

    Try to get a range of pieces, including some big plates.

  • Step 2

    Build the bottom of your ship

    Don't put your ship down on the table – the sharks will rip it to pieces! You’re going to have to keep it in one hand the whole time.

  • Step 3

    Now build up the sides

    You can’t set sail in a leaky ship. Remember to keep it off the table, those sharks are getting hungry.

  • Step 4

    Make sure your ship is seaworthy

    Add your finishing touches: flag, figurehead and the helm (that’s the steering wheel).

  • Step 5

    Set sail for the horizon!
