I have a friend at Cayuga Lake whose Albin 27 Trawler broke free and is now
stuck near shore, bow in. This boat has a full keel, enclosing the prop. A
towboat with twin 150 O/B came and could not budge it. They are returning
with a 60' workboat today. They intend to tow it out backwards using a sling
around the entire boat. Is this the best way? What can be done to prevent
damage to the boat? We think the rudder is vulnerable, what is the best way to
protect it? We think it should be fixed straight ahead. The owner is going to
look into fabricating a timber frame securing the rudder quadrant in the bilge.
Please reply with advice.
