While dozing off to sleep in the sunshine of the upper deck you awake to find yourself on the quarter deck of a mysterious, seemingly abandoned historic ship.
Only Ruffles the dog and the clothes you are wearing appear to be the same. You begin to survey your surroundings you immediately notice a stillness in the air, and no-one in sight.
Yet the ship appears to be far out to sea with no land in sight. You call out in hope that someone may hear you but to no avail.
Ruffles begins to sniff, circling with his nose to the deck. Has he smelt something ?
Can you discover why George arrived here? Can you find a way off the ship and back to your yacht and partner? And will Ruffles safely make it along with you ?
