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.
