Acts 27:18

And as we labored exceedingly with the storm, the next day they began to throw the freight overboard; and the third day they cast out with their own hands the tackling of the ship.

All thought of profit had vanished. It was a survival situation, and everything that could be spared was cast overboard. Even some of the precious cargo went into the sea; but it appears from Acts 27:38 that some of it was retained at this stage.
