Made It to the landing. Get the broken boat to the Wharf.. It was raining sideways. Blowin 30-35 knots....... Finally got the boat on the trailer, 3 of us are soaking wet.
Winds will be blowing in the upper 20's for rest of week into next week..

Karma. I towed a guy in last year from Pavy Reef and not long ago, I broke a prop shaft in the bay and got a tow from south of Dry Reef back. Always offer to help.
