Motorboat craft – wooden motor yacht V1, 3–50 cm, untreated

The greetings card for the boat lover is in front of you, but it still needs a maritime touch. Or your table decorations for the garden party should be more than blue napkins. This is where the wooden motor yacht V1 comes in. It is a clear motorboat silhouette in plywood, made for your next craft idea around the sea, harbours and holidays. You paint it, stick things on it or scatter it on the table. And a simple idea becomes a finished detail you designed yourself.

What changes for you

• You can start on your craft ideas straight away, with no sawing needed. The motor yacht arrives ready laser-cut with smooth edges.
• Your cards, gifts and table decorations share one maritime motif. The motorboat shape is easy to recognise.
• You decorate it just the way you like. The wood is untreated, so you can paint it, stick things on it, varnish it or oil it.
• You will find the right size for every project. Choose from 3 cm for a greetings card up to 50 cm for shop window or wall decorations, in 1 cm steps.
• When crafting with children or for larger projects, you have plenty to hand. The yacht is available singly or in sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100.

Why this wooden motor yacht makes a difference day to day

A ready-made wooden motif takes care of the most time-consuming part of the preparation. Instead of printing and cutting out templates, you get started right away. The natural material feels firmer in your hand than paper. It has a light, even wood surface that printed paper does not have. This works on a birthday card just as well as on a summer table. Your handmade pieces look well thought out and lovingly made, even when time was short.

Material & finish

The motor yacht is laser-cut from 3 mm plywood in our own production in Pößneck, Thuringia. Laser cutting creates smooth edges and the typical brown rim. This rim gives the motif a fine outline. The wood is left untreated, neither varnished nor stained. That is why paints, glues and oils take well to the surface. As a natural material, every piece has its own grain and shade. Some have small knots. This is not a flaw. It makes every yacht one of a kind.

How to use the motor yacht

• Making cards: Stick a small yacht on the greetings card. The boat lover will know at once that you were thinking of them.
• Crafting money gifts: Use the boat as a motif for a contribution to a trip or a boating licence. The banknote becomes a little story.
• Crafting with children: Every child paints their own yacht. In the end, a whole colourful fleet is sailing across the craft table.
• At a summer party or christening: Place a boat at every seat as a place card. Your maritime table decorations then run as a motif across the whole table.
• In a café, fish restaurant or at a market stall: Combine several sizes in the shop window or on the counter. A maritime theme is quickly set up and looks tidy. With sets of up to 100, you can reliably restock.

Good to know about the motor yacht

The word “yacht” comes from the Dutch “jacht”. It originally meant a fast, nimble ship. Today, few motifs stand for holidays, freedom and time on the water like the yacht. That is why it suits greetings for travellers, gifts for boat lovers and any harbour or seaside decoration.

Care & durability

There is not much you need to do. Simply store the untreated cutouts in a dry place, and they will keep their shape and light colour. Avoid constant moisture. If you want to display the yacht outdoors or for longer, you can paint, varnish or oil it to protect the surface.

Frequently asked questions

Can I paint the motor yacht or stick things on it? Yes. The plywood is untreated, so paints, glues and oils stick well to the surface. You can paint it, decorate it, oil it or leave the wood natural.

Where does the brown rim on the edges come from? It is created during laser cutting and is typical of this cutting method. The edges are smooth with a clean outline.

Do all the yachts look the same? The shape is identical, the wood is not. As a natural material, it varies in shade and grain and sometimes has small knots. Every piece is one of a kind.

Which size suits my project? The small widths from 3 cm work well for cards and table scatter. The medium sizes suit table decorations. The large sizes up to 50 cm are for wall and shop window decorations. You choose the exact width in 1 cm steps.

A wooden cutout is just the start. What counts is the moment someone opens your card or spots the little yacht on the laid table. They notice that someone made this with love. Just choose your size and quantity and get started.
