RE: Tiller Time Follow-up - FORGOT PHOTO

Forgot to attach photo of broken thruster. Also attached is photo of the high tech sailboat mentioned in previous posts. The upper deck is merely a mockup made of wood. It will be hauled from the water and all finished in fiberlglass. Bruce Turns out, the remaining thruster fin (recall one broke off in an earlier adventure) was now attached with but one bolt and was moving about and acting as a second rudder to the outboard. I kept an eye on it, but the long shaft was too far away to easily remove (see attached photo). Bruce Stirling
