Chapter 2

When you almost reach the first island, you are out of gas. Now
you have to come up with something else. Unless you prefer to keep
on bobbing up and down in front of the island. But believe me, the
game is going to last for ever that way!

If you want to go on with the game, choose mode Sailing. When the
Hydroflot stops again, choose mode Submarine (good thing that subs
are sailing on electricity and not on gas...)

On your way to the island, you hit a vessel below the water. Your
submarine comes above the water and docks at a pier. Get out and
walk to the fisherman. Talk to him and find out that you trapped a
whale by hitting the vessel below the water. As long as that whale
is down there, the fisherman won't catch anything at all. So he is
quite pissed off! He won't talk to you anymore until you've solved
that problem with the whale!

So, first of all you'll have to deal with that problem. In other
words:  Free Willie!!!

Walk down the pier, and enter the bar which has the shape of an
old boat. Inside the bar you'll find a diving-helmet. In the
dartboard you can find a knife. Go passed the windmill into the
next building (a hangar) and take the jerrycan and the big
spanner. Fill the jerrycan at the pump. Go back to the windmill
and pull the handle at the back of it (you'll see the
magnifying-glass at the rope). By doing so, the wings will start
to turn. Walk to the end of the pier and attach the diving-helmet
to the hose. Turn around and look at the conduct at the end of the
pier. Attach the big spanner to it.

Look at the left side of the windmill. Turn the cog-wheel. When
this is all done, your scuba adventure can start. Walk towards the
diving-helmet and use it... You will hear a big splash and off you
go!

Search the captured whale. It is stuck under a big net. With your
knife, cut the rope that keeps the net and the whale in his place,
it's near the little pole.

Go back ashore and pay another visit to the fisherman at the pier.
Talk to him again. He is in a much better mood now. In exchange
for setting Willie free, he gives you a key. Besides that he also
tells you that there were some people in 1932, who had the same
kind of vessel. They never got away with it, so he is convinced
that it should be here somewhere...

Go back to the beach, go along all the buildings until you reach
the very far end of the beach, where you'll find a kind of stairs
in the rock-face. Via these stairs you reach an old hut. Look at
the photo at the wall. Examine the hut and find a box. Open the
box with the key you've got from the fisherman. In the box you
find another diskette which will help you on your further voyage.

Because you haven't seen the old vessel yet the fisherman was
speaking of, you are convinced that it must be below the water!

Go back to your Hydroflot and fill it up with gas (if you are
standing in front of the computer, turn around and find the fuel
tank left from the egg). Turn around again and choose at the
computer Grapnel. Pull the handle at the right of the computer.
You'll see that the grapnel will be fired.

Walk back to the pier with the windmill. Be sure that the helmet
gets oxygen and put it on again. When you are under water, walk
straight ahead until you reach a wrecked airplane. Then turn to
your right. In the distance you'll see a big pole sticking of out
the bottom and... the rope of your grapnel hanging down in the
water.  Walk towards it and you will discover the old Hydroflot
(model 1932) down at the bottom of the ocean.  Walk to the wrecked
Hydroflot and attach the grapnel at the door.  Walk back to the
pier, go ashore and go to your own Hydroflot.  Get on board and
pull the handle of the grapnel. If you did things right, the
grapnel fetches in. By doing this, the door of the wrecked
Hydroflot will be removed.

Walk to the pier with the windmill once again. Wear the diving-
helmet and walk under water to the wrecked Hydroflot. Enter the
vessel and study the computer. You will now discover the
coordinates 227. Go back to your own Hydroflot.  Place the
diskette into the computer, choose Load, mode Helicopter, enter
details 227, followed by the little star and confirm destination.
Pull the handle at the right side of the grapnel. If everything
went right, you'll be off once more...  When you're running out of
gas again, choose Sailing until you reach the first landing-stage.
The Puebla.

Chapter 3

Get out and turn off the first passage to the right. You are at
the churchyard now. Here you'll see an old monk. He is one of the
former mates of the professor. Talk to him. He tells you that you
can find some gas for your Hydroflot inside the building. He also
gives you a key to get inside the building. Take a look at the
grave. It turns out to be the eternal resting place for Yekaumani,
the Indian love of the professor.

Walk back the passage and then go to the fence. Open the fence
with your key. You arrive in an apparently abandoned village.
Walk to the end of the street, where you'll find a hay fork in a
pile of hay. Once you are there, you will be kicked down.
Regaining consciousness, you'll be in prison...

Pick up the cup. Examine the walls of your prison and discover the
bug. Catch it with the cup. Look at the moldered door of your
prison. You can find a gap at the bottom. You can peer through
it...  Outside of your prison you'll see a bottle of tequila. It
seems to be the soft drink of the guard. Put the bug into the
bottle and look what becomes of the guard. When he has blown over,
get his key and open your prison.

Go to the right and walk to the parked jeep. Pick up the rope and
the jerrycan. Walk to the well in the middle of the square. Attach
the rope to the well. Climb down into the well. Walk all the way
until the end of the passage (along the statue and the gate).

Look around and pick up the sword. Climb up the ladder and...  you
entered the church via the confessional. Walk forward and meet the
old monk again. Just like back home in the lighthouse, this man
also drops dead after doing his story. It's a kind of nasty habit!

Walk forward again and then to the right, to the holy bible. Page
through the bible until you find a key. Turn around and look at
the altar. In the altar you find a little cabinet. Open it with
your key and find a letter and... another diskette. Read the
letter.

Go back to the confessional, climb down the ladder and enter the
passage beneath the church again. Walk until you reach the statue.
Get your sword and use it on her left hand twice. You can here
something move! Turn around and click on the gate. It will open
now.  Enter the tunnel and walk till the end and climb up the
ladder.  Now you are standing in the building at the graveyard.
Leave the graveyard and head back for your Hydroflot. Enter your
Hydroflot and refuel it once more. Put the diskette into the
computer, choose mode Glider and be off again! Don't hit the
crocodiles!

When you arrive at the pier, get out of your vessel at the left
side and climb up the ladder.
