There was an Africat hauled for repair at Pensacola Shipyard recently,
equipped with Volve IPS drives.  It was being unloaded from a ship in Mobile,
hanging in the slings in the water when a log came downstream and damaged the
drives.  At least one shaft was bent and I don't know the extent of damage
beyond that.

I think . . . perhaps . . . if it were my boat, I might have cried.  No even
really in the water and whacked by a log.  Yeesh.
