Yesterday, heading back to the shore in the dinghy from my Itchenor mooring, my torqeedo lost drive and we started to drift with the tide. Fortunately a kind person passing by gave me a tow (I didn't get your name but, if you're reading this, many many thanks).
The sheer pin connecting the drive shaft to the propellor had snapped and I'm 99% certain that I hadn't hit anything with the prop - I had just increased revs however. This is the second time it's happened in less than a year. Do other torqeedo owners suffer from this or am I the only unlucky one?
