Is that machete to cut the rope on a giant catapult that will launch you and
Ms Terry away to safety?

How are you going to pull that rusting hulk out of the mud within 30
seconds? 30 hours?

I thought iron boats could withstand a little heat. It might anneal the
rust.

The machete won't help you when you are asleep and the fire has a chance to
grow much larger.

You are doomed in that watery trailer park.
