The waves continued to crash against the hapless people in the water as well as the two grounded boats. The first stranded boat began to list to one side further spilling people into the water. With the strong waves, the people bobbing in the water drew closer to shore quickly. The first person to reach sand was a middle aged lady clutching a bag of clothes. It wasn't clear if they were hers or just a floation device that someone threw to her but even after getting onto the beach, she did not drop the bag.

The remaining three fishing boats that were still tied to each other made their way down the coast heading for the Taralon docks. The boat captains seemed to have a better handle on the controls now that they were free from the two boats that broke away. The second boat that hit the sand bar was still a ways off shore at least 200 yards off and so the people on board were hesitant to jump into the water for fear of beasts in the water or being drug out to sea. They sat and waited.

More people began to scramble ashore one by one until at least 50 from the first boat that wrecked were now standing on the beach bewildered.
