Skip, taking a break from the bolt

I'm trying to remember how you got to this unfortunate state of
affairs with the broken bolt.

You have a skeg hung rudder which needs to be dropped to repair the
shaft and bearing?

The skeg has a bottom plate extending under the rudder, and the broken
bolt attaches the bottom plate to the skeg?

Nothing is ever easy on a boat, especially one which has been aged a
bit.
