Hi- I'm looking for rudder post bearing for a 53' Gulfstar motorsailor. Does anyone know where to find one? Thanks. You can email me at barefoot@coralwave.com.

Have one made
Most older boats that are no longer in production can be a problem for parts specific to that particular boat. The vast majority of owners have new bearings made up by a local machine shop. Is pretty simple and not too expensive. Just pull the ruddder, get the old bearing out, measure everything three or four times, and find a good local machinist. New bearing in hand in a day or two.
