True, but it will likely be the last quadrant you ever buy.

That Edson stuff is very high quality, and they know their stuff.

        Check Edson.com
        You will find a catalogue showing several systems and several
sized quadrants as diameter effects operation.  I believe they will bore
the right diameter quadrant to any diameter shaft, so measure the
diameter of the quadrant and the diameter of your shaft and call them.  
        
        Naturally, check condition of cable, chain, gears, idler
pulleys, etc, because something else may have stressed the quadrant and
caused the failure.  Replace anything suspect.  You may prefer a whole
new system when you see the new design options?

        The problem is definitely the Quadrant.   It has snapped into 2
pieces from the shaft across to the curved grooved part that holds the
steering cable, the bolts are NOT missing.

        I can not find any name or product numbers in the pieces to aid
in ordering the proper part from Edson or others.   My camera crapped
out yesterday so I will try again to get some pics.   It is cast
aluminum or white metal of some sort.

        It is generally a pie shaped part with a hole for the rudder
post at one end.   This end is in 2 pieces to clamp around that rudder
post.There are 4 bolts to hold this together.   It is about 6 1/2 inches
across here with 2 eye bolts to attach the steering cable ends.   The
piece is about 10 inches from the rudder post end to the centre of the
curved groove end.    The curved end has 2 grooves for the steering
cable and is about 12 1/2 inches across.   It is about 1 1/2  thick.

        As a picture is worth a thousand words, I will cut the
description here and post a pic as soon as I can.   Until then, if
anyone can help, that would be great.   If it isn't an Edson part - who
else could be the manufacturer ?
