This is the story of my
adventures. My real name is Jonathan Wigglesworth, but I
have lots of nicknames. One of them is "CJ". It
stands for "Claws and Jaws", because... well,
I'll let you guess why! When I was a small lad, I sailed
in a shoe. Well, it was a size 13 sneaker, but it sure
seemed like a boat to me! Later, when I grew up, I
learned to sail on a real boat. I am a good lookout. My
favorite spot is up on the bow. 
I
hunker down right by the anchor. That way I feel safe and
secure and I can see right where we're going. I can see
everything!
I know every nook and cranny on the boat, from stem to stern. And everywhere in between. If the Captain or the Mate loses something, I can "ferret" it out in no time. Nothing gets past me.
Of course, I
have a few other favorite spots to hang out too. One of 
them is up on the cabin,
next to the windshield. This is a great spot, because I
can see all around but I don't have to worry about
falling over the side.
If I do want to go swimming, the best spot is in the stern, by the swim platform. If I want to, I can jump right in and swim to the beach. This doesn't make the Captain very happy, or the Mate either. So, most of the time I don't really go swimming, I just pretend.
One time I did go to the beach. The waves scared me at first, but I got used to it right away. I loved the seaweed. I could roll around in it and hide in the beach grass. It was fun!
Too bad summer doesn't last all year. I want to go sailing again!
