- Jack Sparrow and his crew snuck up on their enemies by submerging an upturned wooden rowboat and breathing in an air pocket in the upside-down boat's cavity. What stupidly large force would be needed to hold such a boat underwater? The total volume of the wood is 0.0686 m3 and the density of the boat is 380. kg/m3. It will hold 5.28 m3 of air which has a density of 1.20 kg/m3.
