RedactedNarrative: While operating under heavy seas, made an attempt to get to Oak harbor for refuge.  The boat was being swmaped by South westerly swells which reduced visibility to near zero.  Were following friends boat into the bay when we hit something very hard.  Began to lose speed.  Wife went below to check engine compartment and found we were taking on water fast.  Amde mayday call but raido was impacted by storm and could not hear response.  After cockpit began going under we abandones our boat.  Were rescued by our firend in his dinghy and went into Oak Harbor Marina.
