It's not clear what the moral of this story is other than the need for
a thorough pre-purchase survey and high capacity bilge pumps. The
description of 6 to 7 foot seas is highly unlikely although Stratford
Point is an area with strong currents and tide rips.



I used to run from Milford to Stratford at least once a week in the
summer in my 14' outboard runabouts with 15" transoms.
