Randy, you noted about having to be pulled out by power boats; we sail on the 
Ohio River, and I have had multiple opportunities to tow power boats, usually 
runabouts, who have broken down, and I always tell them, "be sure to tell your 
friends that you were towed in by a sailboat"!   Great fun!

Will I’m sorry to hear that.  Last year I ran my 30 MK I aground three times, 
by not paying close enough attention to the lake level.  One time I suspended 
myself from the boom end, and had my guests ease me all the way out, to no 
avail.  Where I sail it’s a mud bottom so the only damage is to my ego, 
suffering the ignominy of begging powerboats to pull me out of the mud.  This 
spring I highlighted every dangerous contour line on my underwater topo map, 
and confirmed visual shoreline references marking the danger areas when the 
lake’s not full.  And I’m now sure to check the lake level every time I go out. 
 I hope you make a full and quick recovery.
