1. The problem asks to identify the median of the boat lengths data, which is ordered from smallest to largest. 2. The median is the middle value in an ordered data set. If the number of data points $n$ is odd, the median is the value at position $\frac{n+1}{2}$. If $n$ is even, the median is the average of the values at positions $\frac{n}{2}$ and $\frac{n}{2}+1$. 3. Since the data is ordered, count the number of boat lengths $n$. 4. If $n$ is odd, find the value at position $\frac{n+1}{2}$. 5. If $n$ is even, calculate the median as $$\text{Median} = \frac{\text{value at } \frac{n}{2} + \text{value at } \left(\frac{n}{2}+1\right)}{2}$$ 6. Do not round the median value. Since the actual data is not provided here, the exact median cannot be computed in this response. Therefore, the median is the middle value of the ordered boat lengths data as per the above method.
