PURE SARCASM ! Thats how our lives become statistics! The OBD read out like a newspaper story and she stated (at 90mph no less!) "I couldnt slow down fast enough..."

What’s an 18yo doing with a new corvette doing 150? I didn’t see any mention of him wearing a helmet. 1. AZ was always a helmet law state. 2. If he wasn't wearing one, they would of told you.

So, back to stuff that matters hahaha... Only 2-1/2 hours to drill a single 23/64" hole for a 1/8 pipe tap so we can finally, after 30 years, get a shot of grease into each rudder stem tube. Every ten years or so, I had to drop the rudders for my anal inspection process, clean and lube with anti-seize. Now it'll be a squirt of grease 2X/year---spring and fall. Today zee port zide, undt tomorrow, zee vorld! Then install the rudders and send them packing, with a few new rings of course. Remember the big Penisis and mikepussy debate about the kevlar packing and turning the rings over and opposed so they dont leak, hose clamps opposite so the catch your fingernails in the dark, and VOILA! The gages in the ER all turned so the indication area is facing 12:00 so that you can read oil pressure at a glance in a seaway rolling at 1/16" in the harbor going to the shit pump?? That kinda sums up why I quit playing over there. CALL 911... I got a sliver. What a bunch of armchair faggo... ah, er, admiral-exspurts.

Still ouch! Hopefully it feels less painful than it looks.

On a scale of 1-10, maybe a 10 for a day and 16 days later a 4. Still tender with no strength. Rudder install is gonna help that in 45 minutes!
