Broke down on the water

[Walker]

In North nighthawk my hydraulic steering went out. My wife is trying to find a neighbor to come get me.

If you have someone with you limp and one of you push/pull the motor for steering. I came in 35 miles offshore like this one day. Long day/night

[YUPPY]

You are a beast Glen

[Walker]

I'm alone and I can't get the motor to move by hand.

[Walker]

Lost all the fluid and I don't have a single tool with me

[60 Deluxe]

Any chance that you know what isn't working and could make a temporary repair?
I'm assuming here, but there may be an electric pump that moves the fluid. Might be a breaker tripped or a fuse blown.

Can you idle straight and use trolling motor to turn?

[60 Deluxe]

We were typing at the same time. Must be a broken hose.

[Paycheck]

Were is this?

[Walker]

Yep, broken hose at full right turn. No trolling motor. Upper laguna Madre nort or bird island

[Muddy Bud]

Man I know exactly where that’s at. Bad thing with a SE wind you can’t even drift towards one of the deeper cuts to get near the ICW where it would be easier to get a tow in.

[Walker]

Just got off the phone with sea tow. They are on the way. My insurance will reimburse me. Thanks.

[bloodtrailer28]

Dang man we just left this morning or I would have towed you in.

[Walker]

No problem. Just gonna be late for supper.

Maybe a call up to marker 37? I wonder if any guides are still there that could drag you back.
