It takes you a couple of moments, but once you find one of the ends, you make quick work of the knot and the rope starts to slowly drift towards the surface.
Maxine and Professor you’re up!

The Professor watches the situation below, seeing that Fang has made good progress and the sharks are otherwise occupied. Now that the ship is repaired, he sticks his head in the water and yells the command word to change the ship back into a box.

Fang has barely let go of the rope, when rapidly, the fixed parts start to fold inwards. Fanf gets out of the way just before the entire boat folds up into a small box that is now sitting at the bottom of the bay.

Fang waits for the frenzy of the shark attack to subside and then moves over to the now dead shark to collect as many of its teeth as he can. (Ooc if possible can I have not let go of the rope? Or caught it as it started to drift back to the surface?)
Fang spends a couple of moments tieing the ends of the rope in overlapping loops around the rectangular box, whilst the sharks are distracted by their now dead companion. After a few more minutes during which the raft crew hauls the box out of the water, Fang carefully dives over to where the mauled carcass of the dead shark slowly sinks to the floor. YOu notice with some interest that these large fish have no internal skeleton, apart from the head, as it seems. Once there, you use your dagger to loosen five shark's teeth, before making your way back up to the raft.
You're still invisible at the moment.

Doing so, you get back up onto the raft and haul up the half eaten carcass. To the rest of the people on the raft, you feel the impact of Fang getting onto and off the raft, and you see a puddle of water forming underneath of where he is at, but with him still invisible, it all seems pretty surreal. With the boat back on the surface though, Captain Thasselandra quickly places it on the water next to the raft and speaks the command word to unfold it again. Very quickly, you have a mid-sized sailing vessel that seems capable of sailing coastal waters next to your improvised raft. Falx, Brax and Thasselandra quickly hop over, and they use the ropes to tie their ship to the raft to sail back onto shore.
About half an hour later, you ran the sailing vessel aground onto the soft sandy beach where you left about two hours ago. Securing the boat with rope around some heavy rocks, you all get back on land to find Berrus, Zip, Cliff and Bertrand busy with a half-built rampart around your camp, and the smell of smoked fish in the air. Shae, you quickly realise that Zip has a bloodstained bandages he didn't wear before, but he seems able to help out with most of the tasks. Berrus seems happy to see you all back alive and healthy, and with the sailing boat, since it means he'll have walls preventing him from falling into the water at the first wave.

At seeing the boat tied up Fang asks, “Wouldn’t it be easier to make it a box again?” Then without waiting for reply sets about skinning what remains of the shark. Hoping he can add it’s skin to his shield as well as salvage as much edible parts of it that he can. Occasionally tossing some of the trimmings towards Mushu who is prancing around expectantly.
Berrus walks over and tosses the snake heads at Fang. "Ere ye go. Came off some cat like creature tha scuffled wi us earlier. Unfortunatly tha beastie took some.o tha food"
“I think we should be good for tonight at least.” Fang gestures to the shark he’s in the process of going threw to find the edible/cook able bits. “Thanks for these. I’m sure they’ll be of some use.” (What do I need to roll to determine any usefulness of the snakeheads.)
”Well done, Fang,” says the Professor, happy to have the ship back, though saddened by Faekin’s ignoble end.
Back at camp, he busies himself with setting up the rest of earthen ramparts and taking a short rest to replenish his magic. “Ah, so that’s how it works!” He says to no one in particular, losing himself in his spellbook and starting to scribe the spells he just figured out—starting with ’Counterspell’.
Only two hours had passed, but it felt almost like weeks. Since the arrival back, everyone seemed to be in rather great shape despite attacks on either side. It was also obvious by the smell around the camp that meals were taken care of as well, and it made her mouth water. There was also very little for her to offer in terms of building up the defences around camp. She could only smile in gratitude to come back to some sense of comfort and relief that everyone was okay.
Shae would watch those around the camp for a moment before turning around and walking back out to shore. She’d stare out over the horizon, keeping an eye on the boat.
Shae was not alone, who was keeping an eye on the boat. Maxine took her share of fish (great catch! one - no! - five points to Chult!), thanking the fishers and cooks through mouthful of delicious meal, and joined the sightseeing. When the breakfast/lunch/supper was over, she suggested to guard the boat from the deck: "You know, between wild animals, sharks and thieving bastards, I would feel safer on board. If a gods damned kraken will be after our boat this time, he better be prepared to tag us all the way to Port Nyanzaru." If nobody objected, she would do just that - climbed back on the boat, with all her belongings too.
“Sure.” Was all that would escape Shae’s lips when Maxine would head to the boat. She wouldn’t object. The warlock would remain perched on/by the rock that the ship was tied too.
Once the rampart is finished Berrus removes his armor and weapons. Does a quick maintenance of them. Then removing his shirt he goes to the waters edge and attempts to remove the blood and grime
Your lunch consists mostly of the fish that Berrus caught, as the carcass that Fang tied to the raft has only very few bits of edible meat left, the rest having been ripped away by the other feeding sharks. Fang has no issue eating the rest of the shark that the more civilized among you find less tasteful though, and so there's still enough meat for all of you left. Maxine quickly brings her belongings on board, stowing them underneath one of the rowing benches, before setting up her bedroll in the deck cabin. The earthen wall is quickly erected with the Professor's arcane help, before he too retreats to the shady deck cabin on board the ship to start transcribing the spells from the old spellbook he found in peace. Berrus tentatively walks into the water, until it is about hip high, to start washing himself. Underneath all the blood, sweat and grime, he realises that the time in the jungle has hardened his muscles.
As you begin to take care of yourselves, the Captain looks to Shae: "Brax, Falx and I are headed into the woods around here, trying to gather some plants that might be helpful for the journey, so that we might be able to set off tonight or next morning. From what I gather, food is the only thing we need, before we can head off, right?"

Shae would lightly pick at her meal, watching over the group from her perch. Fang had been diligently tending to his hunt and ensuring nothing goes to waste. It was always inspiring to watch and a reminder of how to best use resources. Her eyes would watch as Maxine and the Professor made themselves comfortable on the ship. She sensed their joy and excitement. A sad smile hung on her lips as the reality of their success of retrieving the ship sunk in. It meant some of them in this camp were possibly getting closer to parting ways. And that felt bitter sweet.
The Captain caught Shae staring at their protector in the water, contemplating on using her magic to splash him, but upon Thessalandra's declaration the medic's attention would guiltily snap too. She'd look to the Captain with pink cheeks. "R-Right." Should probably not get distracted... "I of course welcome any medicinal herbs, but I do believe food may be the only thing of concern." She'd nod. And as she'd look to the Captain, she'd offer, "Would you like me to accompany you?" Shae would smile softly to her, Brax and Falx. Maybe it was something she could actually be of help with, although Fang and Maxine were probably more adept.
