Estimated Biodegradation Time
The paper used in this product will begin to soften and degrade within a few weeks in natural freshwater conditions. Full decomposition typically occurs within 3–6 months, depending on temperature, flow, and microbial activity. While fully biodegradable, the boat will not disappear instantly, and may remain visible on a riverbed or shoreline for some time.
By purchasing or using this product, the customer expressly waives all claims and releases the seller from any liability, including but not limited to negligence, emotional distress, property damage, loss of use, or unmet expectations. The customer agrees not to pursue legal action in any jurisdiction based on any outcome, real or perceived, related to the use of this product.
