I haven't read the Chapter but have watched the movie, so my answers might differ:-)
1) No, the narrator doesn't come as a selfish. He and Richard Parker (Tiger) were together and on the same boat. He might have thrown Richard off the boat but he let him to stay there. Pi was struggling and starving to survive and so was the tiger. But, Pi, despite of being so hungry and tired, tried to help Richard too. He helped the Tiger by providing him some of the fishes he catched. At last, he also helped Richard to safely get on to the island. So, we can conclude that Pi was very helpful and rather of being selfish, he helped himself and Richard to survive.
2) It was the most adventurous and deadly experience ever. Our ship was wrecked by the storm. The other animals died by drowning but I managed to get on to a boat, with a human. We were struggling a lot but somehow we reached an island, safe and sound after a long journey. The boy helped me with food. I am still very grateful to him.
