[C38] give your manual tiller a try

[Don Strong]

Patrick: You may have to rig something to get the tiller or a surrogate 
L shaped rig over the top of the wheel framework.
An alternative is a little short temporary tiller that you rig to swing 
free of the wheel framework.
Else, have Berkeley Marine Center (or KKMI, or a yard in Alameda, or 
another) come over and tow it to their facility for repair.
