George Kobernus or anyone that has replaced the 2:1 system with a 4:1 system. Could you please give some step by step instructions on how to remove the old and add the new? Thanks for your help, Jay

Raise and lower the Rudder

I assume you've read the page on this subject at this link:http://h260.com/rudder/rudder_problems/rudder.html

The process is fairly simple. This works best with the boat out of the water, (although if you are a glutton for punishment and never drop anything into the water, it can be done). This summer I had to take it apart to replace the lower line and I was very, very, very careful and only dropped one nut and a washer.

You just take the bolt holding the upper bracket out, disconnet the lower line and pull the block out. Replace the one block in the rudder with two mini-blocks. There are several pictures in the website that shows what it should look like.

Send me an e-mail and I'll walk you through it.
