Drop a sea anchor off the bow.
swim for shore
Deploy a storm anchor (sea anchor) from the bow; something that will slow the boat's drift downwind. Something like a small drogue parachute in the water. The wind will cause the boat to drift, and the waves to rise; the storm anchor will slow down the drift, and keep the boat pointed into the wind. Bow-on is the safest direction for your boat to meet the waves. Otherwise, the wind would tend to push the boat sideways, and you could easily capsize.
Go to shore
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.
If your engine stops while trying to reach the shore during a storm, first ensure that everyone on board is wearing life jackets and remain calm. Use your radio to call for help, providing your location and situation. If you have a backup power source, attempt to restart the engine; otherwise, deploy an anchor to stabilize the boat and prevent drifting. Keep a lookout for approaching vessels and signal for assistance if necessary.

Reduce speed and head into the waves at a 45-degree angle.Panic and call for help. If you have a radio, it's even better.
