Rudder Repaired
New cutlass bearing, shaft, prop (wish they had asked I would have gotten a performance prop)

Here are a few pics in the yard where the work was done. We are working on her as often as possible and will have her pretty, and in bristol fashion, one day!!!

Waiting patiently for us to sail her home!! |
I need to build a replacement rudder for the one that was stolen off my rogers 24. Could anyone help with some dimensions or drawings of a rudder in the down position? I'm not going to make it hinged. Thank you, Mike
ReplyDeleteHello, I'm curious where your Rodgers 24 is now and if you still sail it.I actually was the second owner of that boat. I bought it in ~1982 and sold it in ~1995 to a guy in Satellite Bch FL. I added the 2 deck winches, built the alum rudder plates, reinstalled the running back stays, barber haulers, small breaker switch panel. Raced her at DIYC Tampa many years. Many nights out, sailed her to dry Tortugas,... She's an amazing little ultralite.
