Captain & fisherman
The cautious captain of a small ship had to go along a coast with which he was unfamiliar , so he tried to find a qualified pilot to guide him. He went ashore in one of the small ports where his ship stopped, and a local fisherman pretended that he was one because he needed some money. The captain took him on board and let him tell him where to steer the ship.
After half an hour the captain began to suspect that the fisherman did not really know what he was doing or where he was going so he said to him,' are you sure you are a qualified pilot?
'Oh, yes' answered the fisherman .'I know every rock on this part of the coast.' Suddenly there was a terrible tearing sound from under the ship.
At once the fisherman added," and that's one of them."
ناخدا و ماهيگير
ناخداي هوشيار يك كشتي كوچك مجبور بود در امتداد ساحل دريايي كه نميشناخت حركت كند...بنابر اين او تلاش كرد تا يك ناخداي اشنا به انجا را پيدا كند.او كنار يكي از بندرهاي كوچكي كه كشتي اش توقف كرد ايستاد ويك ماهيگير محلي چون به پول احتياج داشت طوري وانمود كرد كه يك راننده كشتي ماهر است.ناخدا او را سوار كرد و به او اجازه داد تا بگويد كشتي را به كجا براند.بعد از نيم ساعت ناخدا گمان كرد كه ماهيگير نميداند كه واقعا كجا ميرود پس به او گفت: "تو مطمئني ناخداي ماهر هستي؟"
ماهيگير جواب داد: بله.....من همه سنگهاي بندر را از كناردريا ميشناسم..ناگهان صداي پاره شدن از زير كشتي امد. سرانجام ماهيگير افزود:"اين هم يكي از همان سنگها بود"
