Half Magic 1975 25 Mk 1 Orion 1983 Landfall 35 Padanaram, MA From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Dave Godwin via CnC-List Sent: Wednesday, March 16, 2016 6:42 PM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Cc: Dave Godwin <dave.god...@me.com> Subject: Re: Stus-List Idler Plate Photo Explanation This is good but semi-unsettling information. I’ll be replacing my entire steering system less the quadrant and engine control cables sometime next Fall, Inshallah. I spoke with the folks at Edson at length about this but there was no thought or mention of the fact that the plate itself would be a different thickness. Thanks for the updates.

I bought the new bronze idler from edson. When I realized that the thickness was gonna be a problem I called edson and they found "the last steel idler plate on the face of the earth." They agreed to remove the sheaves from the bronze plate and install them on the steel plate. A week later I got the steel plate back. It was immediately evident that the sheave pivots were preventing the sheaves from rotating close enough. I called edson again and they agreed to receive both of the plates. My original and the one they had just remanufactured. They would now remove my original sheaves from the original rusted steel plate and install them on the "last ever" steel plate (which not needed new sheaves removed). It was a process but the guys at edson were reasonable and worked quickly. It is now installed and works exactly as designed 28 years ago.
