Jenna found our steering cable only attached by one bunch of the
(?11)-strand cable a few years ago while I was seining in AK.
She and friends reswaged a new piece of cable to our old chain and I have
kept an eye on it since, periodically lubing.

Sure you tell the yard when you haul out that you want to drop the rudder

We have a 1 1/4" shaft on Swaloon but you should definitely borrow some

Many folks don't have a problem with anything and thus don't
change anything.
The real problem arises if you have a crack or leak beyond the failed

Make sure to seal the threads FULLY with loctite or antiseize (choose your

Also be sure the new screws are 316ss, lots of poor quality 'stainless'

The real concern that I have is trying to somehow adapt these to
