I'm afraid you're gonna have to go digging around inside but I agree that it
sounds like the quadrant (or hydraulic drive arm if equipped) is what stopped
the rudder from dropping further. I'm not familiar with the 37 but on the 37+
the rudder is held up by a stainless bolt with bronze rollers on either side
and a nylock holding the whole works together. If the bolt breaks or the
nylock comes off and the bolt works its way out, then the rudder would fall.
All the best,

Hi all; I am in need the collective wisdom of the group for a rudder issue;
my boat (1985 C&C 37 CB) has been sitting on a trailer since early September
for repairs to the hull, not rudder related; sometime in the past week the
rudder has dropped a full two plus inches and no one knows how this happened;
the hull has been painted and the painters said they moved the rudder by
moving the steering wheel and had no issues; does anyone have any ideas or
suggests about what could have occurred? and more importantly, what needs to be
done to make the rudder usable?
We were hoping to relaunch in the next week or so...I'll be happy to provide
more information if anyone has questions...Thanks!
