Ugh, the whole 'moving the boat across the country so we could put it in a wet-dock in order to sand it down to bare metal and then repaint it' lark was going so well. Today, however, the tiller has snapped off.

Thank God it didn't happen tomorrow on the tidal stretch of the river, but it still makes me wonder what other problems are lurking in the superstructure of this badly neglected boat.

Ooh. It is kind of scary to think of all these disasters we narrowly miss. I would like to think that we miss them because Someone is looking after us, but it's possible that that is just survivor's bias. Maybe we just don't hear about the ones that go down?
