Default Soul searching about a sailor in trouble

I was amazed I could actually make those lines creak with the 175 Sport
Jet pump. She had more power than I imagined....


Xan surprises a number of grounded boats, including a few 40+' crab
crushers that don't realize what a wind shift from south to north means
on the Chesapeake.... We only have 20 hp, but with a 16" 3-blade
connecting us to the water, we *have* pulled stumps (or whatever was
hanging onto our new SPADE anchor a few years back. Had to replace that
anchor line.)
