If my engine quit I'd sail

() After all, it is a sailboat. The engine is auxiliary power.
I'd sail it into the harbor and anchor where there's enough room, or if the harbor's too tight or condition wrong to enter safely under sail I'd either hang out until conditions change or radio for tow assistance to a dock or mooring.
