A puff 3 of air bellied 4 out the schooner's headsails and she paid off and filled away on the port tack 5,
斯图亚特紧了紧索栓上的转帆索,然后就旋转着舵轮,
heeling gracefully 6 over to the breeze while Stuart twirled her wheel and braced 7 himself against a deck cleat.
整帆向风,让船头喷着汽作“Z”形前进,船尾则优雅地在微风里摆动。
"By the by," yelled the man, "you haven't told me your name."
“顺便说一句,”男人喊:“你还没告诉我你的名字呢。”

"Bon voyage, Stuart," hollered his friend, "take care of yourself and bring the Wasp home safe."
“杰出的航海家,斯图亚特,”他的朋友喊,“你要小心,把黄蜂号安全地带回来。”
"That I will," shouted Stuart.
“那正是我要做的,”斯图亚特喊。
And he was so proud and happy, he let go of the wheel for a second and did a little dance on the sloping deck, never noticing how narrowly he escaped hitting a tramp steamer that was drifting in his path, with her engines disabled and her decks awash.
