Hi all,

We recently purchased a 'Dolce' 1968 A-30 lying Puget Sound.  During 
haul out the rudder assrembly seemed solidly mounted ( I did not pull 
grundgeons (sp??!!) or th shoe unfortunately, but while underway, gives 
off a significant, very rymthemic vibration.  Of course the harder the 
boat is sailing, particularily off the wind the vibration becomes much 
more noticable-- ie real shaking up through the tiller.

I am getting ready to haul the boat again and take a look for something 
broken  or worn, but would appreciate any feedback more expericenced 
A-30 sailors might be able to provide.

thanks much,

Glenn Brooks
