Description
Play Battleships. Sink the enemy ships before they sink you!
On your entry to the game you will be asked to create a playing area with a number of sea tiles. Your playing field is a grid 20 x 20 sea tiles making a total number of 400 possible areas you can target in your game of Battleships. A playing field is unique to each player so there is no benefit in teaming up to beat the system through brute force.
For each qualifying geocache that you hide or find during the game period you will be offered the opportunity to click on a sea tile and see whether you have make a hit. There are a number of different sea tiles that will be revealed when you take a shot at your playing area . It should be noted that there are no punishments for clicking a tile but there will not always be the reward you were hoping for as you reveal each tile.
You only receive points for a hit on a ship. Alas, shots that miss a target offer no reward. As a clarification, ships may appear diagonally, vertically or horizontally.

Many thanks Budgietas for placing this cache.
Have camped at the showgrounds before so knew exactly how to access this one.
Thanks.
This was a quick find in an area where I have found caches before
The market was closing down for the day - everyone was too busy to notice what I was doing
My shot was right on target!!!
Sainted the cache at 1300 hours
Total finds for the day totalled twelve
In so doing, I walked 4.53km using 5863 steps while expending 1499 calories
TFTC and cheers

This one took a little bit of thinking as the hint didn't make any sense until walked around of the other side of the fence.
