Can electric eels power my phone?

I'm going on vacation, and browsing through my texts on the latest iPhone. Uh oh, my private airplane, which for some stupid reason has no tracking devices, crashes onto some undiscovered island. Everyone but me dies. Somehow I manage to save my latest iPhone and charger. Ignoring that there probably wouldn't be service, I want to use my phone to contact someone.

I'm on a tropical island, a few miles long and a few miles wide. There is a mountain type landform in the center, with some creeks coming off it. One of them has electric eels in it. There are also coconut trees, and probably a few banana trees.

(If something is unrealistic about the situation, tell me, and I'll change it.)

From the wreckage of the plane, and a tropical island in the pacific, can I make a device that charges my phone using electric eels?

Note - If you were considering closing this as the actions of a single person, it could be a society who worship the deities of Siri from the magical glowing device, and are trying to come up with a way to charge the device. Siri has many personalities, and only few speak the natives' language.
