Savage Tide: ECL 6 Aconitum Bane: Abyssal Warcaster 6: Entry 1

Oh how I hate everything that is going on around me today. First thing when I wake from my sleep after having lost the ship to a very bad trade, gauntlets of armor my ass, the ship is stuck in some vegetation out in the middle of the sea. Serves the new Master right, I would have never gotten us marooned here.
So yeah, we see another ship a few hundred feet away from us was stuck too. So our captain, as bight as she is, flew over to the ship alone. Next thing you know, she is being ripped in half and played tug of war with some plant monsters.... how much I hated her.
So I was still groggy and hated the morning so I went over to the other ship... maybe I could get her loot before anyone else got over there? However, the rest of the party was already there and dispatched the monsters with ease.
So we discovered a book of the original captain telling about how the plants were killing his crew, serves him right, I was a better master of the ship than him. So the party found that we had to trek like 5 miles or something like that over the vegetation and it would have taken forever to do. So everyone was going to fly over there with magic or magical properties of some sort. Even the Tripp'n fighter learned some convoking powers from one of the other convokers in the party that was recently freed from the stones we picked up.
I however could not fly to keep up with the group. Check I even tried to calculate how far the catapult could launch me lol. Until we decided to make a skid out of the broken wood planks.
Mush!!!!!! Mush!!!!! and on we went.
The next few rounds went easily enough crossing the vegetation until we came to another ship. So our historian wizard said according to history it has been lost at sea for hundreds of years. So we hopped onboard. As soon as I got on the deck and the Tripp'n fighter landed, the other people still flew around, more stupid plants started attacking us. This time smaller ones started spawning bigger ones. The same big ones that ripped the old Captain apart. After we found out that we had to kill the smaller plants, as they were controlling the others, we dispatched them. We almost didn't succeed at saving the Tripp'n fighter, as he learned, grappling is not his strong area.
While we were fighting, one of the other members seen we had more company coming, and coming fast all around us. So I decided to try to find an exit below decks, maybe swim out of a hole in the boat.
As I proceed down to the bottom of the boat, a Mother of F-ing Plants sprung out of a black hole. Thankfully the convoker went topside to get help from the rest of the party that was preparing to fight off the horde of plants approaching the boat. With a few "short" rounds, the plant beast started to fall apart and everything around us shook violently. We immediately noticed that the ship was waterborne again and sinking rapidly.... remember the black hole.... yeah now a spouting water.
We managed to get topside in time to see all the vegetation gone! Quickly we got back to our ship.
Over the next few days the crew tried to fix the ship, but it was to no prevail. A few hundred feet from coast, a large wave slapped the ship around. The ocean proved too much and it forced us to abandon ship to the island.
