They won't accept.
Prior to last year's Marlay Point race there was a 7m sport boat at the ramp whose motor wouldn't start. As I knew that he was part of the group that I was with, and that we were all heading to a waterfront pub a couple of miles away (staying the night at the jetty for those that make the drink/drive linkage), I offered a tow. He was mortified! Took him a couple of hours, but he got it going.

Another plus for the Mac. Plenty of power, and no fixed keels to get stuck in mud shallows.
