0 Guest Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 (edited) paddle, oar, or Eleven letters have I Fastening device not meant for fastening. Can mean center and mipoint of anything. Of war and cruise and of this same kind, Have the sea and ocean in mind. This works with lines 1, 4 and 5, and the third word is unrelated. First two are okay, I think. Edited July 7, 2009 by ???

Of the three words the first two are synonyms and the last two are homophones. sorry, i indeed meant "midpoint." and no one has the correct answer yet. the first word has eleven letters, not the whole riddle itself.

Fly is a good answer but now we know the first word has eleven letters! I'm still working on that.. ship & ship are not homonyms.
