Do boaters tell ‘Dark & Stormy” tales, or is it just us salvage guys?
A good portion of my income is generated by assisting boats dragging anchor. 90% of those dragging are unattended, and dealing with them is a pain in the ass. Long time writer/cruiser Tom Neale tells it this way:
I say, “bravely,” because trying to save or divert a dragging boat in a storm, with dinghies, can be very, very dangerous. It can easily result in loss of life, not to mention injury.
