Is that one of those low transoms I have been hearing about?
BTW, since he was underway I am guessing he didn't know he was sinking
until he stopped (plugs out?)
I think I would have made a run for the beach that looks a mile or two
away. That boat probably still does 30, full of water. You would just
have to do it and not dawdle.
It does look that way. Besides, if it were the plug, wouldn't it self-bail
on the way in?
Didn't appear to have much flotation.

Hindsight is always 20-20. At some point during that fiasco I would stop
running around in circles and look for a soft landing on shore somewhere and
hightail it.
