[Public-List] Update on Rudder repair #235

[Hugh McCormack]

George,

 

I believe that my rudder is mounted the same way.  If you look at  http://alberg30.org/maintenance/Steering/RudderVarieties/Wooden/Photo9.jpg
 that seems to be the same arrangement and parts that Richard has on his rudder.  Our hull is #39 so these may have been parts available to Whitby in the early days but not in the later years of production.

 

Cheers,

 

Hugh
