What an ordeal. I think many of us wouldn't have survived a night in the ocean, particularly only in shorts.
I'm anxious to hear the rest of the details. They are so sketchy now, almost all of it is supposition.
I won't leave the beach without a hand pump - those things move a tremendous volume of water - but even those can fail. I'd taken on several gallons on a really ratty day one time. I'd pumped out about half when the pump handle and metal piston pulled right out of the cylinder. Not good. Having a buddy nearby to bail you out? Good!
