[QUOTE="richg99, post: 287529, member: 4376"] Motor troubles are minor. See P.S. below. One thing that has come out of this discussion ( which I posted on two other sites) is that we all ought to double check our tool boxes and be certain we have enough proper sized wrenches to help get us out of harm's way. I was lucky that the winds were blowing the correct way. A vhf would be nice, but, where I fish, a cell phone probably gets better reception. More than one responder told about duct taping the paddle to the cowling...Hmmm. I don't carry duct tape with me, Guess I should start now! Thanks for all of the well wishes, guys. rich p.s. took her in to Steve Wright at Bowden in Humble. Got her back today with a straightened and cleaned steering tube. I trust that guy implicitly. If he would have told me that I needed new steering, I would have had him put in new steering. I don't worry about Steve, if you don't need it, you don't get it! RG p.p.s. took her to Baytown for a few hours after picking the boat up. Got two keeper sized specs on a silver spoon. All is well that ends well. RG [/QUOTE]
