Launched with gtnotte and his dad from the old pier around 6:30 or 7. We were headed towards the reef for a morning of rockfishing and my idler cable snapped right in the middle! No signs of tearing or fraying at launch, but yeah, it just snapped. So, being the prepared man I am, we retrieved my spare that I have had in the hull for ~3 years and we repaired it on the water! 20-30 min later, we're back up and running. 2 hours later, I had my PB lingcod - 38" and ~24lbs! Caught her on live bait in 30 fow. The day could have turned out differently - It certainly pays to be prepared!
Also, it looks like I will not be restocking my replacement anytime soon - Hobie is backordered, so I added some 5mm bungee to my kit for the next otw repair if needed.
Great day on the water!!
