Hello, I bet the rudder backwards just a little bit on my cutter. I am away from the boat and won't get back to it for a month but I had an epiphany about being able to move it. I am wondering if I can drop the rudder by about 1 in which would allow it to rotate freely. Can the quadrant be repositioned? I am assuming the quadrant is what holds the redder up? I can't remember the configuration and would love some input. It would be a temporary solution just so I could freely navigate to get it dry old. As I recall what I can with my feeble mind, it seems that I should be able to. I'm not going to try to cross an ocean with it in that position so please don't start throwing the safety card at me.
