Bill; thanks, I do agree with the "collective wisdom" because the rudder was
usable... we are delving into it later today...

The collective wisdom appears to be the deck fitting. On my 42, the post is
supported at the deck by two bronze rollers (I’ve discussed the design
previously). A pin goes through the post and the rollers are held in place
with nuts on each end. I had a nut come off several years ago, which nearly
caused a catastrophic failure. Inspect the deck fitting.

I thought there was a nut on the top of the post. If so, it may have come off
and it slipped down till the quadrant hit the hull. Obviously you are going to
have to go down an look, and all things shall be revealed unto you

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!
