Three dreams all about the same thing–ship traveling. The first two trips are practically identical.

1. I can't remember the beginning, but I am with other people in the ship (I can only remember a man whose dark haired and has a beard I think, don't know him in real life) are escaping from some people or trying to reach some destination. Not sure. We're in a large boat that's not heavily armed (with cannons, etc). Still a big boat though. At some point we are traveling by a current and we reach a wall. There is a sharp 90º turn to the right that the ship will have a difficult time turning with the fast current. There's a plug in the middle of the wall on top of the water. It has a shaft and then a larger circular top that I have to grab and pull. On the first trip, I see the plug and try to pull it out to stop the water and open some entrance, but I don't do it fast enough. The current catches up and I die.

2. In the second dream, the beginning is the exact same but we reach the plug, I immediately go right to it, knowing exactly what I have to do. In my mind I'm thinking that I'm going to die because that's what happened last time, but this time I pull the plug and survive. I think the plug opens the wall and sends the current through. Either way, the man exits the ship, and we walk onto land. He asks me what we're supposed to do next, and I tell him that I don't know because last time I died while trying to pull the plug. We continue our travels. It's a pretty cool travel.

3. I can't really remember this one except that I send my sis and another girl on a journey. They have to travel by a small boat (that's about the size of a canoe) on a long journey. It's like the canoe I have at home with three horizontal bars for seating on. But this boat is made of wood and is light brown colored. I tell the two girls about what they have to do and that they have to make sure they balance their weight out while in the boat. I make sure they understand that because that's super important–balancing the weight. If the ship tilts this way, they have to slide over that way, etc. They never actually go in the boat in this dream. But as I talk (like a narration), the boat animates in dream camera, turning when I say, "If the boat turns..." and so forth.
