Josh and his family always rent a beach

house for summer vacation. One
afternoon, Josh and his Dad took the
boat out and when they returned pulled
up their boat on the beach and went in
to have lunch. When they returned, the
beach was covered in water and the
boat was floating offshore. What is a
likely explanation?

Answer:

High Tide

Step-by-step explanation:

It seems from the question that after they returned, the beach was covered with water, High tide explains it because the tide is at it’s highest point at that time. Since the water is at it’s highest point, the boat was washed away and the beach was covered with water.

Tell me if this is wrong!

Do not add any harmful comments please. You have no right to bully someone who answers questions that you don’t know.

Answer:

The tide had probably rolled in and covered the beach with water and had swept the boat away offshore.

(I'm so sorry if this is wrong)

Hope this helps!
