Hello All,

I am unable to control the sail boat.
I can fit sails and get started,
from then on it's a hair raising
Charge around, I can luff sails to almost stop.
But cannot get off or retrieve object,
Flagged between two sharp rocks

thanks for help
Derek

Hi Derek,

Navigating the boat can be tricky. It's a little easier and more controllable if you sail in a zig-zag pattern. You won't be able to land anywhere yet until you have reason to and have triggered this in the game.

luck Let us know if zig-zagging works for you.

Hello again,

Many thanks, the boat is very tricky, but

when I made sure of the trigger (as per your advice) I can manage.

BUT I cannot beat the Monkey's at throwing nuts,
to get compass. ( too quick for an old man )

Is there any chance of a save game there ?

Best wishes Derek
