Thanks Art. I think the later boats the quadrant and top of the lower =
rudder post is higher in the boat. Perhaps it was a modification to the =
original design or they felt it was a concern earlier and then later =
discovered it wasn=E2=80=99t.

Nothing on Brilliant either. The clearance between the rudder shaft and =
the bushing is extremely small so in the worst case should not result in =
a significant leak, and the top of the lower tube is well above water =
level so should never be a concern. Even when you lay the boat on its =
side the rudder post will be out of the water!

Hi Guys,

Just checking to see what arrangements you have on the rudder tube. I =
have removed my rudder and the tube looks in good shape. There is the =
space between the lower tube and the upper tube to allow the quadrant =
(approximately 4 =E2=80=93 5=E2=80=9D). On Equinox there is nothing =
under the quadrant (in or around the upper end of the lower tube) to =
prevent water from coning into the boat. Does anyone have something =
there. If so what?
