Until all the facts are in, we'll have to speculate. My only sense is
that he was too far right in his approach. If so, what caused this
and/or why, will determine much of what happens next.
Nearly did something similar once approaching Shinnecock Inlet on Long
Island. We were coming from the west along the shore and aimed for the buoy
just off the jetty when I noticed an awful lot of white water where there
should not have been any. Changed direction to the sea buoy and then came
straight in to the inlet from there. Lots of shoaling on either side of the
inlet well out past the jetties.
