I have an even more ancient invention. Rope.

[–] CounselingTechie 2 points 6 months ago

I see your invention and raise you one even older! A stick.

But how would you attach the rope without being able to get to the floating plants, some kind of hook?

Madness!

We've been doing research on new methods/tools for placing items at a distance. One is more accurate, but doesn't give as much distance. It's called stick. The other can give greater distance, but accuracy can be a problem. It's called throwing.

You could just leave a line attached to the raft and a pole on shore.
