Hex Islands (927)

Instruction:
Shade some empty cells black so that the black cells form the provided shapes. Each shape is used exactly once and can be rotated but not reflected. Shapes cannot touch along edges. The cells are separated into several "islands"; each island has several rows that go along three different directions, and each row can be potentially pointed at from the two locations outside either end of the row. Some of these locations are marked with arrows. The arrows point at the rows that contain the most shaded cells when compared to the other rows that could be pointed at from that location. (If there are multiple rows that have the most shaded cells, then all such arrows are given). A dot at a location means that no arrow information is given. (Note that locations do not look past islands to see other islands beyond the immediately adjacent island.)
