Well, my shaft repair will be under way now. I arranged for John to pick up TUNACIOUS at the Dana Point launch ramp on Friday. I used Vessel Assist to move the boat ot the launch ramp at 0830 and John arrived at 0915. Great timing. The shaft busted 1.5" past the strut, nice jagged break. I hope it gets finished soon. I ordered a new Simrad AP16 with remote while it is at the shop also, so it is not all bad news.
Keeping my fingers crossed on the insurance company covering the repair.
