    Scheduling a 12 person fishing | 
  2013-07-09 |

  From Don: Greetings Math Central! 
I searched the index, but could not find a similar quandary. 
Here's my predicament: 
I am seeking help in scheduling a 12 person fishing outing. 
We have four boats. 
I would like to schedule three fishermen to a boat. 
We fish 2 1/2 days, split into morning and afternoon sessions. 
Thursday afternoon, Friday morning, Friday afternoon, Saturday morning, and
Saturday afternoon 
We switch boats after lunch, with each fisherman moving to a different boat,
with different partners. 
I would like to have each fisherman fish with as many others in the group as
possible, with a minimum of partner duplication. 
I would like to have each fisherman fish in all of the four different boats
over the course of the trip at least once.
  
Would you please suggest a boat / fishing partner schedule that fits my
parameters as closely as possible.
  
Thank you!
