Knock on wood I've never been stuck but I did have to get out and push one time up a narrow little creek in about a foot of water. That was interesting!

Glad you made it outta there ok. And by the way, I wouldn't have stopped for fear of getting stuck there with you.....unless I knew you had beer then I would have plowed that bar on purpose! LOL j/k of course.

Nice pic and story.

I didn't want anybody to stop, just wave......and not laugh. If I wanted someone to come over I would have lit the grill and fired up the homemade deer chorizo I had on board for lunch. Some folks carry ham sandwiches, I carry homemade deer chorizo and a baby weber.....what? Oh and I also found a great place to handline crabs on the other side of the bar!

Great story FWB, been there. Looks like the water kept on leaving you. BTW I would stop and offer assistance as would any one of my boating friends. If they wouldn't they are no friend of mine. I keep a bottle of "Snakebite" in the boat for just such occasions. "Snakebite" so as not to offend some very nice Southern Baptist fishing friends that find their way onto the boat. Acknowledgement of wake? A thing of the past IMO.

Beautiful picture blue!
How in the world did you keep it from listing from one side or the other?
Been beached several times in different boats not paying good attention to the tides.
For those of you that don't know, we got up to 10 foot tide fluctuations in this area, real easy to do!
Like you said, normal response is to see if you are alright and have plenty of liquids.
