Wolverine was built in 1987 and although I don=E2=80=99t know what if any d=
ifferences there are in this regard among the boats, we do take seawater ar=
ound the rudderpost when surfing in big following seas. The water runs unde=
r the engine and into the bilge where it gets pumped back overboard. I woul=
d like a solution to the problem so if anyone has a good recommendation I a=
m all ears. Thanks.

Thanks Art. I think the later boats the quadrant and top of the lower rudd=
er post is higher in the boat. Perhaps it was a modification to the origin=
al design or they felt it was a concern earlier and then later discovered i=
t 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 sig=
nificant leak, and the top of the lower tube is well above water level so s=
hould 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 be=
tween the lower tube and the upper tube to allow the quadrant (approximatel=
y 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?
