The kettle started to float haphazardly, trying to make its way back inside the ship. Luckily, the door opened as one of the hobbits came out. This sucked in a lot of water, including the water that the kettle was bobbig on. With a clang, it bounced down the stairs to the safety below. That had been a close call. Any wave could have washed it overboard.
