Beneteau 411 Marnna del Rey - Southern California
Our 1998 411 is getting increasingly hard to steer. Is there anyone in the Marina del Rey area that is able to service the steering mechanism? Hoping for some input!

Fouled Rudder ?

Youve probably checked this, but if it is'nt a maintenance problem it might be rope or netting wrapped around between the rudder and hull.

Rudder Stiffness

This is a common problem appearing on the 411's. The rudder shaft is getting pitted. The fix requires the rudder to be removed from the boat, and then sand the rudder shaft and the cylinder sleeve that it rides in. That will do the trick! A good web site for the 411's is an owner's site called www.intersessions.com/411 All sorts of great information about out boats can be found there. Good luck jack B411
