1. first the chicken, the fox and the corn is left on the other bank.
2. then he goes back for the fox, and after getting fox across he goes back for the corn taking the chicken with him
3. leaving the chicken behind he bring the corn across.
4. leaving the corn and the fox together is ok, so now he returns for the corn.
You must have always something in the boat
However, I guess you can take the corn and the chicken or the fox and the chicken on the boat, since they wouldn't be alone; you'd be with them

There must always be at least 1 thing in the boat, the chicken, corn or fox

Who said anything about anyone being in the boat as in a man or woman. It's just the 3 things on the bank. Yes, they are clever. Especially the corn. They can all row the boat
. There is no one else other than the chicken, corn and fox.

As for convenience I would just let the chicken have the corn, let the fox have the chicken and I eat grilled fox. Row to the shore so I work of the calories and then fall asleep under a tree.
Saves an awful lot of peddling up and down as well...

F's : Here's a golden oldie for you to try, if you're feed up with the Fox, Chicken, boat, corny one
If a fellow met a fellow in a field of beans,
Could a fellow tell a fellow what a fellow means?
How many F's in that ?

Eight in the sentence, zero in the word 'that'.
