It can be really ugly when that happens, don't ask me how I know.

I did that myself back in March on Amistad and soaked myself and non boater. It sucks and is embarrassing as hell. I didn't know it till the next morning but the shaft was bent and couldn't hardly even turn it. Ended up replacing it with a motorguide tour digital.

Been there, done that and yes it's embarrassing. Luckily I didn't bend or break anything.
To whom much is given, much is required.
