Once when I was young and stupid I was in Gonzaga with my 15' Westcoaster and went to Isla Smith west side half way down to look at the lagoon filling. Drove the skiff up on the beach and walked over for a few minutes 10 mins later I walked back and saw my boat 50 yds off shore and drifting away. Never ran 75 yds and swam 100 more so fast in my life. Ran out of swimming gas just as I grabbed the prop. Hung there for a few minutes to catch my breath and climbed in. Tide had come up (DUHH) and floated it free. Went to throwing an anchor out on shore from then on.
