3-第一章:登入敌船课(13)
Unfortunately, Snotlout had a point.
The Hopeful Puffin was more of a floating accident than an actual boat.
She had been built by Hiccup and Fishlegs in Shipbuilding lessons, and they were both hopeless at woodwork. Something kept on going wrong with the design and instead of being long and thin like a Viking ship should be, she had ended up fat and almost completely round. Her mast was too long and leaned lopsidedly to the left, so that in a strong wind she went round in circles.
She also had a leak.
Every half an hour Fishlegs or Hiccup had to remember to ban out the seawater that had collected in the bottom of the boat with Hiccup's helmet (Fishlegs's helmet also had a leak).
Gobber the Belch looked at The Hopeful Puffin.
"Mmm," said Gobber thoughtfully. "You might have a point, Snotlout. NOW!" he continued briskly.
