I guess I wasn't supposed to work on my boat or sail today... I went down to try to mount my new autopilot today only to find there was no hardware kit in the box. Then, while test fitting it (without hardware) I pushed down on the tiller only to have it split in two.

On the bright side, I wasn't out in high winds when my tiller broke today!

Sounds like my day.

I was getting ready to head home yesterday morning after spending the night on the boat and first thing I did was drop my sunglasses in the head. Fished those out and in the process of cleaning them up hit my head (twice) on the edge of the companionway.

All of this was within 15 minutes of waking up!
