Q1 Has anyone gone so far as to build a new rudder or have suggestions on
who might build them or have a mold?  Attempting to remove Silvergirls
rudder in order to replace the bushings, the post was so worn, ridged and
distorted that it could not be removed without grinding significant
portions of the post down.  I think the best plan for me is to start anew.

Q2- I'd like to install an auto-pilot.  I would like to stay in the Garmin
family, but have only heard of Raymarine EVO-200's being installed on the
Frers 33.  Do any of you have suggestions for an auto pilot?

Thanks for any suggestions you may have.
Jay
