I agree with Maxingout - once in 11 years, even if messing and annoying, is minor. Away from the stove, on deck without a harness in a storm, leaving the head seat up... well those would be far more of an issue.

Sometimes life interrupts.

Too often blogs glamorize the stupid (At the bottom, I took off my scuba tank so I could fit into the hole and...) or enhance the true story (40' waves came across the bow - the worst we'd seen in the Chesapeake). This was a reminder that even experienced people fall prey to Murphy (which is often why we call them experienced)
