1 I suppose so, how do I get there?
Talk to Holgart (right next to Caroline) and give him the Swamp paste.
Right-click Holgart and select the Travel option to travel to the fishing platform.
Pick up the Broken glass on the floor (hut to the west).
Go to the north-east corner of the platform and pick up some Damp sticks.
Climb the ladder right next to the sticks.

Speak with Bailey in the south-west cabin for an Unlit torch.
Use the Broken glass on the Damp sticks to dry them.
Rub the Dry sticks together to light the torch.
Go back up the ladder.
Go talk to Kennith again.
From outside of the cabin, kick the badly repaired wall to make an opening.
Talk to Kennith again.
Just outside of Kennith's cabin, activate the crane controls to rotate it (a cutscene will play if you've followed the steps correctly - make sure you've talked to Kennith after you've kicked in the wall).
Go back down the ladder to the sea level.
- Tip: Before leaving, you can catch a fish with a small fishing net on the downstairs platform to complete a task for the Ardougne Medium Diary .
