RUDDER ALIGNMENT
Lock both rudders
down. Measure 20”
up the leading edge
of rudcder and mark
this measurement.
Do the same on the
trailing edge.
Turn the rudders so
they are pointing
down the hull as if
sailing stra i g h t
ahead.
Measure from the
front edge of one
rudder blade (20”
up) to the centerline
of the front edge of
the other blade. Do
the same with the
trailing edge.
If the distance between the trailing edges is greater
than that of the front edges; lengthen the tiller
adjuster by unscrewing it.
If the distance between the front edges is greater
than that of the trailing edges; shorten the tiller
adjuster by screwing it in.
One complete turn is 1/16 of an inch.
Attach adjuster end of tiller crossbar to tiller.
Example: if the distance between the front edges is
86” and the distance between the trailing edges is
86-1/2”
