I have a 1975 Pearson 10 Meter. My rudder post packing is seeping very slow. I am ready to haul out [ every 2 1/2 years] and am going to attack this project. The problem is getting wrenches and 2 arms in the area around the rudder post. I looked at it closely and might have to pull the 20 gallon deisel tank which I dread . Are there any Pearson 10 meter owners that had the same repair.
