Really appreciate the forum; top notch, have been reading for years!

I am currently in the process of repowering a 1975 Tollycraft 26. Bought for $500…no engine/drive

Repowering with 46hp diesel…have replaced cutlass bearings and built vee drive couplings. Using a short driveshaft from engine to vee drive. Custom fabrication of engine mounts…engine beds.

Will be slow ‘trawler’ A bit worried about rudder control at these low speeds….

Weld material to rudder for more low speed control?
