Bail the Ship is a fun large group game. It pits two groups against each other and burns off a lot of energy. I have seen it played at Vacation Bible School and at camp. It’s always a lot of fun.
It can be used with an ocean or adventured themed VBS or camp. Or just change the name to fit your theme. 🙂
Bail the Ship
This game does not have a winner or loser. It is just for fun and getting wet!

Instructions
- Divide the playing area into two parts using the divider.
- Create two teams of equal size.

- Each team will use the towel to launch water balloons to the other side.
