Through a series of rogue waves, bad tactics and bad weather, a storm is
blowing you ashore. There is sand. There are rocks. Engine is dead.


There's no

time to get you tattered sails into something resembling an effective


foil.

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.
