Desperate Measures

      A long time ago I had went to this park for a family barbecue. My uncle had brought his fishing boat and my dad brought our fishing equipment. It was a fun barbecue,everybody was laughing and having a good time. After about four hours me and my dad decide to use my uncles fishing boat to go out on the lake and fish. So we start heading out and got pretty far from the boat when suddenly the boat engine stopped working. My dad and me didn't sweat it and tried to get it to work again. After about ten minutes of trying it still isn't working. Then we remembered the oars. We looked around the boat but they weren't there. My uncle had removed them when helping us pack our fishing equipment. After being stranded for another twenty minutes. I decide to swim to shore and bring over the rope that was used to hold it. I brought the rope to the boat and my uncle helped bring it in.
