Sinking Ship is a puzzle in Professor Layton and the Curious Village.
Puzzle
SOS! Fifteen people are trapped aboard a ship that's going to sink in exactly 20 minutes. Their only chance for survival is the five-person life raft stowed on their vessel. To make matters worse, the waters around the ship are teeming with man-eating sharks, so swimming to safety is out of the question.
- US Version
A round-trip to the nearest island and back to the boat takes nine minutes on the raft. How many people will live to see dry land?
- UK Version

Correct
Nicely done!
A moment of silence for the two who didn't make it, please...
