On a huge river next to its bank, full of pirates, rests a vessel loaded with treasure.
There are 2 clans of pirate planning to loot that vessel.
The first clan, guided by The Blackbeard, is located 100 feet across the river.
The second, guided by Black Cesear, is founded 100 feet from the vessel along the river bank.
Since there is no access through land to the vessel, the pirates have to sail to the vessel
Both clans have the same type of boats which can travel at 5 feet per second.
The river flows at 3 feet per second.
Which one of them will make the most number of trips before the Rescue Ship arrives?

Re: Pirates
If I'm reading it correctly, this is a straightforward arithmetic problem.
