Puzzle 60 


Last week my wife and I found ourselves stranded on an island, oops!

Unfortunately, we were also stranded with our two sons, with no clear means of rescue.

Luckily, I came across an old rickety boat which I knew could carry either one adult or two children.

How did I rescue my family?
