Hi,
 This may seem silly to you and you might not even
read it but here it goes:
    I'm in the eighth grade and I am searching for
research for the completion of my science project. My
Problem Statement is "Will a buoyant object, such as a
sailboat go faster in salt water or fresh water?". I
have been researching water, salt, sailboats, and
wind. I stumbled upon your email when attempting to
research buoyancy. I am not sure,though, if I am
researching the right topics. Do you have any helpful
information on the effect buoyancy has on the speed of
a sailboat? Or do you have any helpful research
information or topics?
    Further information on my experiment procedures:
       I'm using a toy sailboat and placing it in two
different gutters, one containing fresh water and one
containing salt water. At one end I'm going to place a
box fan on high and time the boat untill it reaches
the other end of the gutter.
  Thank you if you read this. Your help will make my
research more complete. I assure you the time,if any,
you use to help my will be useful in my experiment.
                                  Thank You,
                                 Katie O'Bryan
