Final answer:
The details provided do not pertain to the scenario involving Pi and sharks but seem to be from a different maritime narrative without a character named Pi.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question pertains to an event in a story where the character Pi is in a situation with sharks while not being on his makeshift raft. However, the information provided does not directly reference Pi's story, or any situation involving a character named Pi and a raft with sharks. Instead, the excerpts discuss various scenarios involving a boat or dinghy, the crew's interactions, and their struggle to survive in a challenging maritime situation. It seems like these excerpts are from a different narrative, possibly 'The Open Boat' by Stephen Crane, which does not include a character named Pi or the specific scenario described in the question.
