*Stranding/stranded - stuck on an underwater sand bank. That is my understanding, which should be confirmed by an expert in these matters.

Thanks, Stephanie. Have a great fourth of July!
agree Jack Dunwell : "strand" being "beach" and having myself been neeped, I should say that any sort of "beaching" (stuck on the bottom") would be OK, Ms Lukac
