⚖️ Weighted Matrix for Boat Concepts

Teams turn their earlier sketches and research into at least 3 distinct boat concepts, then score each one with a weighted decision matrix using criteria such as buoyancy, stability, steering, printability, and RC component fit. The teacher models how to assign weights, evaluate trade-offs, and write evidence-based justifications using test notes and partner interview insights from the design brief. Teams finish with a short written recommendation naming the concept they will carry into CAD.
