Ahoy !

Does anyone have pictures and/or a descriptive narrative of the proper 
installation of the rudder and steering setup. Pictures and parts 
description of the setup below the cockpit of the rudder stock, 
quadrant, etc... are especially needed now.

I previously requested information regarding proper disposition of 
cracks around the entry point of the stock into the rudder but have 
received nothing.

Is the rudder for the last boats manufactured actually made of nothing 
but polyglass and foam ? If no, what and how then, please ?

I'm starting to redeploy #54 which was 'dismantled' and idle for years 
and now needing good info to put 'er back together, not only the 
rudder-steering setup but the entire boat. Even the keel was removed.

All advice and suggestions are appreciated, especially including 
pictures and parts sources.

Cordially,
C.Thomas
