fresh gale 【氣象學】強風(八級風)。

fresh man

But as soon as it grew dusk in the evening , i chang d my course , and steer d directly south and by east , bending my course a little toward the east , that i might keep in with the shoar ; and having a fair fresh gale of wind , and a smooth quiet sea , i made such sail that i believe by the next day at three a clock in the afternoon , when i first made the land , i could not be less than 150 miles south of sallee ; quite beyond the emperor of morocco s dominions , or indeed of any other king thereabouts , for we saw no people 這時風勢極好,海面也平靜,我就張滿帆讓船疾駛。以當時船行速度來看,我估計第二天下午三點鐘就能靠岸。那時我已經在薩累以南一百五十英里之外了,遠離摩洛哥皇帝的領土,也不在任何國王的領地之內,因為那兒我們根本就看不到人跡。

We laid her head for the nearest port in spanish america , for we could not risk the voyage home without fresh hands ; and as it was , what with baffling winds and a couple of fresh gales , we were all worn out before we reached it 我們把船頭對著西屬美洲最近的一個港口,因為我們如不補充水手,返航時恐怕會有危險。由于風向不停地轉換,再加遇上兩次大風浪,我們到達那個港口時都已累垮了。

However having a fresh gale , i stretch d a - cross this eddy slanting north - west , and in about an hour came within about a mile of the shore , where it being smooth water , i soon got to land 由于風還大,我就從斜里穿過這股回流,向西北插過去。一小時之后,離島只有一海里了,且這一帶海面平靜,所以不久我便上了岸。
