I was paddling my boat in the ocean. I was 5km out from shore. Suddenly I felt very tired and fell asleep. 2 hours later I had woken up. Then I stood up on my boat. In the bottom of my feet I could not feel any rocking. I thought I must be in very calm waters. looking around, I had arrived at an island, “but where on earth am I?” “Come in, come in do you copy?” I said to my walky talky. There was no reply.

I got out my phone to see if there was any reception  “but there wasn't any”.

So I decided to set up camp. I found some dry moss,some branches, leaves and a stick. It took a long time to build but at least I have shelter. I grab some of the moss that I collected earlier. I grabbed the stick and went right and left again until the moss started burning. 5 minutes later of hard work it had lit.

I thought to myself I  better quickly get some dinner. I found a stream. I looked really hard to see if I could find any fish. “There!”  I quickly grabbed it. It started jumping everywhere. I lost it. I struggled to hold it because it was so slippery from coming out of the water. I had caught a salmon.

I had finally got back to my shelter. Looking out to the mountains the sun started to go down below the horizon. I said  to myself it is time for bed.

The following morning I had got up. All of a sudden I hear someone calling “are you there, are you there?” “Copy that”. The man on the other side of the line replied “who are you”? I replied saying my name is Jared. They said back “my name is Mark”. “Are you lost”? I said “I am well intruely lost”. “I will help you ok” “ok”  “Can you give me a description of the island, so we can send a rescue helicopter to come and rescue you” “Sure I can”

“ok” “ it is very bushy, it has tall pine trees”. “Hang on I need to get a piece paper and a pen”. “Is that all you can give me”. “Yes” “ok”.

1 hour later they had found me and some man came down on a winch and a harness. He gave me a harness and were winched up to the helicopter. We flew back to the station. I was very happy to be rescued.
