There are 5 ships in a port.

  1. The Greek ship leaves at six and carries coffee.
  2. The ship in the middle has a black chimney.
  3. The English ship leaves at nine.
  4. The French ship with a blue chimney is to the left of a ship that carries coffee.
  5. To the right of the ship carrying cocoa is a ship going to Marseille.
  6. The Brazilian ship is heading for Manila.
  7. Next to the ship carrying rice is a ship with a green chimney.
  8. A ship going to Genoa leaves at five.
  9. The Spanish ship leaves at seven and is to the right of the ship going to Marseille.
  10. The ship with a red chimney goes to Hamburg.
  11. Next to the ship leaving at seven is a ship with a white chimney.
  12. The ship on the border carries corn.
  13. The ship with a black chimney leaves at eight.
  14. The ship carrying corn is anchored next to the ship carrying rice.
  15. The ship to Hamburg leaves at six.
Which ship goes to Port Said? Which ship carries tea?
 
im sort of struggling with this. please leave it up for at least a day or two - i have nearly half of it solved..Thanks
 
this one is far too complex for me to do with out taking a fair amount of notes. my ability to handle complex problems; to hold several bits of info in my mind simultaneously - is getting more and more difficult over time. i can only hope it is posted accurately so its not impossible.

I was going to try to line up: ship > color > destination > contents > departure time - for each ship.

At this time i'll attempt to answer the first part: The Spanish ship goes to port Said. correct?

I've got it! but I don't wanna ruin it for Sigmond and don't have a clue how to send PM from phone.
So don't read further Sigmond...




























The one carrying tea is at the other end of the one going to Said :)

it's fine. the idea is to solve it before someone else does. i haven't got a chance to line up the ships for the second part of it; although i might be doing it wrong to begin with. anyway, my guess is:

NSFW:
Spanish ship is going to Said and the English ship is carrying tea.

Glad you are not mad at me...
So the Spanish is definitely going to Said...and the one carrying tea is the French.

no, don't mind at all. i just guessed regarding the ship carrying tea; sort of figured making it the English ship would've been too obvious.

P.S. How do you make a NSFW?

in the advanced section there is a button that will produce the option:
