On my old H22 I epoxied a steel tube in the tiller for the pivot bolt. Takes the load off the laminated joints.

I had that idea also, but didn't know where to buy a steel tube the correct diameter. I need to trim the plates some, but it definately kept the rudder box from digging into the tiller.

I found one at a machine shop. Bored out the tiller to accept it. I did the same with the Rudder. For that I actually used a big piece of bronze tube a friend had. It worked great. My Rudder had wallowed out a big hole but that tightened it right up.
