If your boat engine stops while you are trying to reach the shore during a storm what should you do?

If your boat engine stops during a storm, first assess the situation and ensure that everyone on board is wearing life jackets. Try to determine whether you can restart the engine; if not, use the anchor to secure the boat and prevent drifting. If it's safe to do so, communicate your location and situation to emergency services or nearby vessels using a radio or signaling device. Stay calm, and prepare for possible rough conditions while waiting for assistance.
