Old style rudder


judgehenry
 

Hi, I am a new member. I have a fish with the old style rudder
assembley. I have lost the brass pin and was wondering if any one
had one the wanted to sell or knew where I could find a replacement.
Thanks. Chip

Hmmmmm, that's gonna be a tough one.

I have created a FOLDER in the group FILES section called "Rudder". Inside
the folder is an old catalog diagram of both current and past rudder
designs. Please take a look at the diagram and identify which pin it is that
you need - vertical or horizontal?

If nobody at this site offers up the part(s) you might check out the Dealer
links here:

You could also contact Vanguard (the present manufacturer)
and see what resources
they have.

Additionally, and probably your best bet these days, you may need to
fabricate the replacement.

If you don't locate the part and decide to update to the new style mount,
contact me, I've done two of them so far with good results. (It ain't cheap,
though)

I suggest you merely go to the hardware store, purchase a brass bolt and
wing nut of the appropriate size and length, and go sailing! I sailed one
in such a state for many years. Have fun!
