A fwe years ago out at the Canyons, one fellow had the misfortune to
wrap his anchor line around his prop shafts and pulled out both struts
resulting in losing the shafts. Water started pouring in, but a
couple of boats close to him got there quickly - they ran lines under
the stern and held the boat up until they could plug the shaft holes
and get additional pumps into the hull.

Actually brought the cripple back to a point where they met Sea//Tow
half way.

Pretty cool.

Cool indeed and quick thinking on everyone's part.

Just how does one anchor in the canyons however. I usually think of
them as 600+ feet of water - nearly off the continental shelf.
