Default Sailboat caught in surf

Looking at how little wind there was, I suspect that the boat would
not have headed up into the seas, if indeed the wind was onshore. He
might well have just ended up in the troughs but anchored. That
wouldn't have changed the outcome very much.



All the more reason we all need to pay lots more attention to ENGINE and
POWER than to sails and nostalgia.
