Hi all,

I pulled my boat a few weeks ago and checked the rudder. Everything feels
solid, but there is some slight play at the rudder shoe. Not 1/2 inch play
as some have talked about, just slight play. I can't feel it in the rudder
and it doesn't affect the pintle. I didn't notice it 3 years ago when I
bought the boat and wondering if I need to pull the shoe or wait until next
haul out. The shoe is rock solid, as is the pintle. Just curious if others
have any play, or if any play is bad. Thanks for any advice.
