Behind you, your Zodiac dinghy is doing a dance, but it's still there at the
end of the tow line.
Forget how or why. You're IN THIS SITUATION. You're expecting to run aground
anytime....
What do you do? Abandon her? Try to ride her into soft sand? Drop the hook and
prey?
Not a quiz. Interested in hearing thoughts on this.
