what boat exactly was it they were on??

was it the blackrock??

what year is it when they arrive?? (1988)??

so that would make it 1988 when the losties find the abondoned camp and the canoes??? or was there a flash between these points??

I'm fairly sure that Rousseau states clearly that she was shipwrecked with her crew and discovered The Black Rock later on in their explorations of the island. And it was 1988 (supposedly) because the transmission had been running for 16 years. Not to mention Alex looked like she was about 16 years old.

yes but when Jin and Roussoue land on the beach, is that the same time or around the same time the losties return to the camp???

I think what you are talking about is the flash and time jump when the losties were in the canoe. There was a flash and they wound up in a big storm. They paddled to shore quickly. That's when we see Rousseau and her party in the raft during the storm. That fits the story she has always told perfectly. She describes how their ship was destroyed when it crashed into rocks during a big storm with sounds and light like she had never heard before. That would also include her description of the flash when the time jump occured letting the losties into her time.
It would definitely be about 1987 or 1988 just based on Alex's age alone and the fact that Rousseau was preggers in the raft. I just can't say how far along she may have been and what month of the year it was so either year would work.
Hope that helps you.
