Put this in your pocket and sit on it for a minute. If they physically move the island, whether it's some David Copperfield trick or whatnot, think about the Slave ship in the middle of the island. What if in the past they moved the island and the ship just so happened to be located where the island moved to, so the island filled in around the ship - explaining how there is a ship in the middle of the island.
