So what do you folks think of having a drivesaver on a single engine trawler
with no get-home power? It may save my tranny, but I'd be totally without
propulsion afterwards. Hmmmm....

Well, all I did was take the broken drive saver out and bolt the coupling
halves back together... Rest of the way to Valdez without incident.  Had another
drivesaver shipped in, installed it and Bob's your uncle.
