Hi Seascape27. I was wondering if you ended up getting a picture or description you could share.

I have a 78 Hunter 27 and I'm trying to figure out the upper rudder assembly. The rudder post come out in front of the rear wet locker and has a square teak trim around its exit point into the cockpit. There is some plastic collar or bushing that is crumbling around the shaft that is held...
