Rudders

Have just performed open heart surgery on a rudder, the worst I think I have ever worked on, this is what was left[img]

Just a suggestion if you have aluminium bushes and washers, treat yourself to nice new plastic ones, before they get too bad.

The second one was even worse, had to drill the centre bush out, it was so badly swollen with the corrosion it wouldn't even move.
