Building a raft to get off Nauru

[Alexander's Horse]

Any tips?

Things are going pretty well here all in all. I have a friend named Wilson, doesn't say much but is a good listener.

I need to cross about 500 miles of ocean before hitting land in any direction. I hope I don't drift up to Bikini atoll, still hot but the wrong kind of hot...

I've just dumped a few spent diesel barrels into the ocean in hopes that they will make their way to you and expedite your raft building. Lots of plastic bags as well that you can use to weave together into rope that will float. This way you can avoid chopping down as many bamboos and jungle vines ... evironmental awareness

You can call it New New Jersey.

Why leave the island? Just embrace your British ancestors and enslave the natives making it your own little slice of AH heaven.

That armor is only good against shark tooth and other slashing weapons. Try using a gun.

Human corpses will last you about a week before they become untenable.

Really? 30 miles from the equator?

True, the temps above 20oC will significantly reduce their viability. You can compensate a bit by choosing fatter victims.

or just go for soup

On the plus side the sharks are likely to eat much of the corpses before they go bad.
