Haha, lucky no one videotaped my ordeal, the starboard gear lost pressure when I was working her off of the bank, the tide was way out. I limped Home on one engine and about half way home the 90 degree gear for the steering had come misaligned and the shaft came loose, Just had the autopilot installed, maybe this had something to do with it? I don’t know.
After about 20 minutes and an old ski rope I buttoned her back up and finished my trip home.
