And to the posters blaming not knowing what side of the sticks to stay on --- ABSURD -- this is pure negligence-- these rocks are visible !!

Now that we know the motor was functional afterwards I think this was likely a slow drift onto the rocks. Probably a failed anchoring. That weird anchor line angle suggests it was out when the boat got to the rocks.
