9-10hr each way ride on the HelenH with nothing to show for it!
Thats alot of damage for not hitting a rock.... I guess the brightside is your hull didn't get whacked...I hit a floating/partialy submerged telephone pole one night 3 miles off of the beach a number of years ago.. it did almost as much damage externally as it did internaly... hopefully you have no broken gears...SS props are great for cutting lobster trawls you dont see.. not so gentle on your gears and shafts... I've seen them actualy twist the spline on the drive shaft and never chip a gear... good luck...

Professor M... I did miss you making the trip with Slip.. maybe next summer...late JUNE!

A good run is better than a bad stand!
