Hi all
The attached image is of the bracket at the top of the rudder in the lazarette. Obvioulsy needs some attention - either replace or clean and paint. Have cleaned and applied some rust kill as a temp measure.
Would this be a part I could purchase or better/easier to get one fabricated?
Also I see how tto remove it but want to ensure I dont drop the rudder out the bottom!! It looks like the rudder is held in by the bracket around it just underneath this bracket.
Is this a job I should attempt in water or wait until it is hauled out for antifoul?
