Keep the shark talking until the feds arrive.


Good answer, Wally...but in this case the sailor was unable to rig such a
patch. He took another course of action.
The conditions are the key.

Set anchors at bow and stern, such that the boat is held with the beam to
the wind.

Get enough sail up to create sufficient heel to get the hole clear of the
water.

You could also start sailing on the opposite tack to keep the hole above
the water line... I guess. Not easy to do, since water will get in anyway.
