Rowan's Character Choices
The signal in the water
The reef research boat hummed as it crossed a patch of calm water. Rowan, a young helper on the crew, was checking the safety tags on a box of underwater cameras. Tahnee watched the sonar screen while Dylan recorded the boat’s position. A sharp beep came from the screen. Tahnee leaned closer. “There’s something moving near the shallow reef,” she said. A moment later, the boat’s radio crackled. A small orange float bobbed in the water nearby, but no one was attached to it. Rowan wanted to grab the float straight away. It might belong to a diver, and every second could matter. But the boat was still moving, and the safety rules said to alert the captain before anyone went near the water. Rowan took a breath and called, “Captain, we’ve found an unmarked float. Can we slow down and check the area?” The captain reduced speed. Tahnee kept watching the sonar, and Dylan spotted a second float farther ahead. The crew followed the safety plan and searched from the deck. They found a loose piece of orange equipment caught on a harmless marker line. No diver was missing. Rowan felt relieved, but also a little embarrassed for being worried. The captain smiled. “You did the right thing. You noticed a possible danger and spoke up before acting.” Rowan helped log the equipment’s location. Later, the team used the information to update their reef map and avoid the marker line on their next survey.
