Hey guys i have a 1999 Johnson 50HP 2 stroke (j50pleea). Last weekend i was backing the boat up and stupidly forgot to tilt the engine upward, which resulted in a broken skeg and a few other problems.. Now the steering is stuck, which i believe is do to a bend in the cylinder of the cable steering. Also there looks to be a leak in the exhaust swivel bracket on the top and bottom which can be slightly seen in the pictures attached. And on top of that the tilt just stopped working today and i have no idea why. All in all im disgusted with myself and want to get back on the water. Any tips on what should be my plan of action will be greatly appreciated thanks.
