I believe you have to cut through the glassed tube the rudder post sits in….
Speaking of “good autopilots” has anyone installed an under deck autopilot on a 34+? I think it would be possible although the installation would be a job for a very small person ;) Stephen Thorne 34+ Deja Vu’ On Fri, Jun 5, 2020 at 6:31 PM Andrew Means via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: I've thought of it. It would at least mean reworking the lazarette and the small hatch on the port side of the cockpit. You'd need a good amount of storage for the rope - with the boom swung out all the way and with a 3:1 purchase you'd be looking at nearly 70' of main sheet? I decided if i was going to do more solo sailing I would probably just invest in a good autopilot.

The boom is almost 15’ long, and the traveler is only 5’ from the mast, giving horrible purchase upwind. Looking to move it closer to end boom sheeting, but worried about structural integrity to support the traveler.
