Hi Jayesh,
Your answer is correct............
I was pondering for so long time because no one has posted a reply. You are the first person to solve this riddle.
However, tea can be carried by the Brazilian ship, too, if you understood position ‘to the right’ as anywhere on the right side from the given point (not only right next to).
