During a crossing from Key Largo to Marsh Harbor, our Boston Whaler 370 Outrage was left powerless after striking a turtle and losing its propeller cowling in the middle of an approaching storm. With anchors failing and the vessel drifting toward a rocky coast, rescue efforts through the night were thwarted by dangerous seas.

After being sunk for an hour and a half, the wind and rain began to ease up. I was able to pump the water out of my boat, but it was still completely grounded.

If there’s one thing, I want fellow boaters to take away from our story, it’s this: Safety isn’t optional. Make sure everyone on board knows where the emergency gear is, how to use it, and that it’s easily accessible. We were lucky, but it could’ve been much worse. Don’t wait until it’s too late—be prepared.

The Mobile Coast Guard was preparing to launch both an aircraft and a vessel to provide assistance. They told us the boat was approximately two hours away. Since we were already on a boat and located just over 40 miles from their last known GPS position, we figured we could reach them within an hour. Although we were low on fuel for what would be a more than 100-mile round trip, we decided to make the run anyway, given that we didn’t know the nature of the emergency.

At one point, after taking multiple 4-foot breaking waves over the bow, center, and stern, we hit a wave that lifted the entire boat out of the water, leaving us airborne for what felt like an eternity, though it was probably only 3-4 seconds. For the first time in my offshore career, we were completely at the mercy of the sea, immobile and helpless.

The adventure took a dramatic turn on February 24, near New Zealand, when a powerful storm struck with winds reaching 40/50 knots and waves towering between 10 to 15 meters. Trapped inside my boat, a massive wave crashed, flipping it over, breaking parts, and flooding it. Despite the chaos, I was fortunate to escape with minor injuries – some shoulder pain and a bump on the head.

They continued making way on 1 motor as they constantly bailed working to keep the boat moving and afloat. After several more hours, the Coast Guard dispatched a 47-foot cutter to escort or tow them in, if needed. Once reaching the sinking vessel, (51 miles from shore) the Coast Guard instructed the captain to stop and attempted to put a pump on the sinking vessel. However, the vessel which had taken on too much water capsized and sank within minutes.

Stranded about 630km from Kangaroo Island in the Great Australian Bight, Xavier faced a communication blackout. To signal for help, he activated his ResQLink AIS PLB Friday evening. Unfortunately, during the collision, Xavier sustained injuries to his head and neck. Making the strenuous situation ever more difficult.
