The little port below the slatted seat in the cockpit looks to me like it's an access to the rudder shaft. That pin across the shaft opening looks like I'm supposed to slip an emergency rudder device over it.
DID I GET THAT RIGHT? WHAT DO I WIN????
.
The PO told me he thought the PO before him installed the little port. From looking around the site here, looks like it's a factory job!
I have no emergency tiller handle, seen one a member built back in 2013.
I can build one, I'm sure... but what do you all recommend for materials?
Once I make those slots in the end to accommodate the pin in the rudder shaft, I'd want my e-tiller to be strong enough to hold up to some major leverage right?
Handle length? I know I'll have the wheel to contend with unless I remove it.
Just want to do it right. Thanks
