Susy,

The "Problem at the Pond" was that you let Nutsy sail the Toy boat to
far from shore. He isn't use to Long passages!

Remember the Pond Boat is a toy, This makes it necessary to reduce his
trips to those of his actual sailing knowledge in miniature.

If you keep the distance, from shore, to that of a broken tree limb that
can retrieve the mis-sailed Toy, everything will be fine

Does he own the "Toy" or is it in your name?
