Wow what a day for my new boat!

OK so I left Man. At around 8 am and got all the way to Barn. Inlet. When things went bad. I was sailing for the most part when I went aground. To make a long story short I should not have cut the channel markers and I got off by tying the top of mast off to a power boat who pulled me back into the channel by boat got to around a 40 degree angle. Needless say the experience was worth the 100$ I gave the guy. Seatow was going to charge me 540$. In the process of trying to get my boat off I spun the propeller. The same god send guy towed me into Happy Valley Marine. I bought a new prope for 50$ I am now at Barnegat Inlet right west of the light house and going to be in Atlantic City tomorrow. What a day!
