Acts 27:39-41

39When it was day, they did not recognize the land; but they observed a bay with a beach, onto which they planned to run the ship if possible.

40And they let go the anchors and left them in the sea, meanwhile loosing the rudder ropes; and they hoisted the mainsail to the wind and made for shore.

41But striking a place where two seas met, they ran the ship aground; and the prow stuck fast and remained immovable, but the stern was being broken up by the violence of the waves.
