Describe the adventure that the three friends had when they spent the first night of their journey in the boat?

In Chapter Ten, the friends intend to spend their first night on Magna Charta Island, but they are too tired to travel all the way there, and decide to stop earlier. Because they did not bring a tent, they have to pitch the canvas cover over the boat before they can sleep. This task proves more difficult than it seems, and it takes them several attempts to successfully set it up.

They cook dinner, which is very satisfying because they have had such a long and exhausting day. They then prepare to sleep together in the boat's cramped quarters. J. tells his friends a story about two men who accidentally shared a bed in an inn; during the night, they stumbled into the same bed, and each thought his bed had been invaded by an intruder.

there are some tough times faced by the men in fixing hooks and putting the canvas. He also make remarks on how stomach rule over them.
