A Crisis

WTF....cruising happily and the motor just stopped. We threw up some sail to keep headway and my personal mechanic got to work right away. 2 hours later, it was dark and we were off Port Jefferson our planned destination. So with no motor we decided to sail into port. My knees were shaking as we glided slowly between what we thought were the breakwater buoys. And into the harbour we cruised like we did this all the time - no big deal. Made a rum and began to celebrate when a tug came along side and asked that we move because we were right in front of some barges...Yikes we hadn't seen those! We pleaded innocence and port ignorance and explained that without power we couldn't possibly move.
As it turned out he worked around us, no problem.
A crisis averted.
