Paddlewisers,

Once a buddy's skeg was jammed, and he had a string tied to it. I pulled on
the string, and the skeg was jammed so tight that when I was finally able to
pull it loose, I accidentally yanked the skeg down farther than it is
supposed to go, causing the screw at the adjustment knob to become stripped
on the cable. For the rest of the crossing, I had to occasionally reach
under the stern and manually adjust the skeg as conditions changed.
