Thanks! (I think...lol)

Boating Lession # 1,246- Lots of bad things happen when you break a crank.

Not sure why it came apart? I was told that it was probably just bad luck- imperfection in a steel crank that happens once in awhile. Didn't have alot of hours or abuse on it. I think it grenaded at less than 5,000 RPMs.



Then again, I didn't have a flat on a run-flat tire last year, too...so it could be me that breaks the unbreakable...lol.
