The wind was howling and it was raining pretty steady. I'm amazed that the boat didn't me or thirty other boats that it must have passed. I don[t think you could have repeated it with a lot of contact in a thousand tries.

The boat was laying on its side until the rizing tide floated it up. There were two guys in an inflatable dingiy holding it from bouncing around.

The boat didn't show a scratch on its yellow topsides -- and the white undersides look like they were still polished and in racing condition. NOT A MARK ON IT, that I could see.

A guy hooked-up the outboard to the stern and motored it back out to a tie-up.
