Duh, navigate shallow areas on a rising tide. Those who don't are no
sailors. Preferably at about the top half of a rising tide. That way any
little grounding and all you have to do is wait a little while and float
right off. A little soft mud on the bottom of your keel doesn't harm
anything.


Waiting is for dock sailors. I prefer 600 horsepower and twin 30
inch props.

It *will* get you off.
