Jib Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 You are shipwrecked on an island in the Caribbean after a storm sinks your ship. You may choose 3 items (material items not people) to take with you before the ship slides beneath the surface. You have one set of clothes that does not count toward your 3 items.

Honour Bright Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 If it is Barbados or St Lucia I am shipwrecked on, it would be suntan lotion (SPF4 because I wanna look good when I am rescued) a huge beach towel and a frozen mudslide. If it is a DESERTED tropical island, it would be duct tape, WD40 and a nail file. With that, you can do ANYTHING! Taking on the world....one pair of boots at a time!

Well if that be the case...I'd have been dead by the age of 5 or 6 from dehydration or insulin coma or some such making it a non-issue.

Commodore Swab Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Why does everyone want to take canvas? If it is for shelter a tiki is easy enough to build, if its for collecting rain water well you can direct wain water by using palms easy enough as well.
