I never saw this before, sorry if its old.

That photo is at least a year old, maybe more.

The Captain was coming into port at night and experienced a medical emergency.
The boat ended up on the rocks at the entrance to his home creek.
It is believed he knew he was in trouble, and was trying to make it home when the mishap occurred.

Amazingly enough, it was reported that the boat suffered only superficial damage.
A testament to the strength of the Parker design.
 
If I recall correctly, he perished of an apparent heart attack on the rocks, though his passenger survived the crash with bumps and bruises.
