Hello Bob,
Thought your readers might be interested.
I've posted some amazing CG footage of a case I was involved in on Sunday. A 35.5' Pierson was blown onto a lee shore at Alec Bay, Lopez Island, after wrapping their sheets in the wheel. They couldn't get their sails up or anchor set. There were small craft advisories in effect at the time.
Always a plan A, B, and C. Make a game out of it.
