在他们到达避风处前风暴已经开始了。

The storm broke before they reached shelter.

船开行中，甲板上唯一避风处就是在船尾。

While we were in motion the only sheltered spot on deck was astern.

这个码头呈凹形内弧避风港式，全长317米，占地面积91亩，建有60个舶位，可同时停靠画舫、快艇、木船等450艘船只。

This port is concave in shape, 317 meters long and covers more than 6 hectares. It has 60 docks for 450 painted pleasure boats, speed boat and wooden boat to shore.

我们随波逐流，四处飘荡。到了海岬下面的避风处，速度突然减低，船慢慢停了下来。最后就好象走进了一道死水湾似的。

Round we went with the tide, until we got well under the lee of the point, when suddenly the speed slackened, we ceased to make way, and finally appeared to be in dead water.
