dunno..... from the look of that boat; i would suspect not.
if he is lucky the storms will float him, if he is crazy he will be on
the boat ready to go when it does.
if he has a tug set an pik for him he may be able to pull his boat
off into better water with his anchor winch.
I am crazy so i would have a good pik set and be waiting for the storm.


I can't help thinking about those waterbags from the youtube video hauling
over the top of the mast when the tide comes in and makes the sand fluid.

If you put a steady pressure on the mast to heel the boat over onto its
hull, that would start wiggling the keel buried deep to surface itself off
to the side, putting the weight onto the hull. Once the hull was bearing
the weight, on TOP of the sand, with the waves and tide awashing it all,
shouldn't a towboat be able to just haul her sliding on her hull back into
the water with a little pressure from a tugboat?

Might take a day or two for the pressure to roll her onto her side and pop
the keel free, but that sand awash like that gets soft and mushy with all
that wave action.
