Hi ya' Hoofer!
As I recall, if you are in the pilot seat of the starboard side of the fish balloon, you get up, go forward once, turn left, and go forward once or twice toward the stairs amidship.
The way I got out each time was to pan off to the right and down at the same time. That move revealed the outlet down the stairway. Hope this helps. You should be able to get out if you got the CD and you have accessed both chairs to the extent possible.
Love, Witchen =O)
