The Boys Make a Plan

The boys make a plan to gather wood to build a fire as well as to create some type of shelter.  Most of the deserted boat is unusable as a shelter, but they will use it for sunbathing and entertainment venue.  Piggy and one of the younger boys are left on board the boat to look out for any possible help or threats.

As they work they realize they are free from adult supervision and begin to strip off their clothes in the hot Thai sun.
