Okay.. here it is...

2 Men and 2 Women want to sail to an island.
You have 1 boat..

The Boat will only hold 2 women OR 1 man...

How do you get all 4 of them to the island?

This is probably really easy lol :D

How can they get themselves over? They would have to come back to pick eachother up etc..

Im retarded :(
 
Or...

"You have 1 boat... how do YOU get them over"..

Surely you're the one in control of the boat so not a problem :p </pedant>

I just started drawing it out but got beaten by the above.. bleh :p
 
2 women across first
1 woman back
1 man goes over
1 woman back
1 man over
1 woman back
2 women over


That is assuming that it can hold up to, and doesn't have to be full ;)

Edit: I'm an idiot, that's wrong - I submitted it before checking it! The other people along the similar lines are right...

Assuming this is a small boat then it must be a reasonably short distance to sail otherwise the boat simply would not be suitable for the task.

So they swum. :D
 
Woman and Man
Drops the man off
Woman goes back and gets the other man
drops him off
goes back, collects the other woman, then back to the island with both woman
 
both women go over, leave one, guy goes over, women brings it back, both women go back and leaves one, women brings it back, guy goes over, the women goes back to pickup the other women.

EDIT lol should have known everyone else would say it before I posted.... quite proud I worked it out formyself this time tho heh usually I draw a blank.
 
1 man becomes Alpha, kills the other man as he's competition, rapes the women and then burns all the bodies.

Problem solved... 1 man 1 trip :)
