Not what they meant by "on the rocks"

Based on how the boat was resting on the rocks (and the fact that other pictures had been taken with the bilge pump at full tilt) I don't think it was adrift. I'm thinking bow high, coming up on to plane and then WHACK!!!! several thousand down the drain. The buoys are confusing there and it's possible that the wakes made it difficult to see, but if you don't know the area... SLOW DOWN!!!
