sails and even a steering wheel, upper and lower deck so he can hide from the rain and the sun and the wind and high waves...
Fortunately theres a lot of rain and theres a lot of algea on the outside of the boat so he does have something to eat and drink (even though he does wish he had something else too). He also feels lonely sometimes and wonders what if he is the only snail left in the whole world. And he feels traped on the little boat. But then he sometimes hears a strange sound thats coming from the land:

and sees Jaques Cleusnail exploring the underwater terrain.
And he doesnt feel so alone anymore because he knows there are snails all around. He feels happy again and free. And he imagines that someday there will be a lot of snails around him listening to his stories about his adventure. He thanks the great spirit of the snails for protecting him!
He listens to the sound of water and slowly falls asleep....
