Hello listers after a year's sabbatical from this list. My 35-3 has an Edson 36" six-spoke flat wheel with 1" straight hub. (maybe all are same)
Here's a confession: I have suffered from wheel envy, and recently purchased an old 44" Yacht Specialties wheel on ebay. It has similar, but not quite, same hub and keyway dimensions. The hole in the hub of the YS is a tiny fraction smaller than Edson shaft. It will part-way fit, but the diameter of the hub hole needs a shave. Aside from just looking cool-er, (to me) I removed my 'camel hump' and sit to the side of the helm and this refit will make steering really nice. Anyone out there who might have switched wheels with any experience and/or advice on who, where or how to get this a proper fit? (I have an idea and am searching for machine shops but wonder if there are some who have done this) Also...I might have a 36" Edson for sale if this works...
