While we were thus preparing our Designs, and had first, by main Strength heav'd the Boat up upon the Beach, so high that the Tide would not fleet her off at High-Water-Mark; and besides, had broke a Hole in her Bottom, too big to be quickly stopp'd, and were sat down musing what we should do; we heard the Ship fire a Gun, and saw her make a Waft with her Antient, as a Signal for the Boat to come on board; but no Boat stirr'd; and they fir'd several Times, making other Signals for the Boat.

我们立即按计划行事。首先，我们竭尽全力，把小船推到较高的沙滩上。这样，即使潮水上涨，也不致把船浮起来；何况，我们已在船底凿了个大洞，短时间内无法把洞补好。正当我们坐在地上，寻思着下一步计划时，只听见大船上放了一枪，并且摇动旗帜发出信号，叫小船回去。可是，他们看不见小船上有任何动静。于是，接着又放了几枪，并向小船又发出了一些别的信号。

The rainy Season was in the mean Time upon me, when I kept more within Doors than at other Times; so I had stow'd our new Vessel as secure as we could, bringing her up into the Creek, where as I said, in the Beginning I landed my Rafts from the Ship, and haling her up to the Shore, at high Water mark, I made my Man Friday dig a little Dock, just big enough to hold her, and just deep enough to give her Water enough to fleet in; and then when the Tide was out, we made a strong Dam cross the End of it, to keep the Water out; and so she lay dry, as to the Tide from the Sea; and to keep the Rain off, we laid a great many Boughs of Trees, so thick, that she was as well thatch'd as a House; and thus we waited for the Month of November and December, in which I design'd to make my Adventure.

雨季快到了，那时我们大部分时间都只好呆在家里，为此，我得先把我们的新船放置妥当。我把船移到从前卸木排的那条小河里，并趁涨潮时把它拖到岸上。我又叫星期五在那里挖了一个小小的船坞，宽度刚好能容得下小船，深度刚好在把水放进来后能把船浮起来。然后，趁退潮后，我们又在船坞口筑了一道坚固的堤坝挡住海水。这样，即使潮水上涨，也不会浸没小船。为了遮住雨水，我们又在船上面放了许多树枝，密密层层地堆了好几层，看上去像个茅草屋的屋顶。就这样，我们等候着十一月和十二月的到来：那是我准备冒险的日期。
