The rudder shaft seems too thin to get enough threads tapped in? Also, the zerk

for lead ($0.50 to $1.00/lb) exceeds the asking price for the boat.

I think you have to look at boat values differently. It's more about the
enjoyment we get out of sailing or just puttering with our boats. My boat
is worth a lot to me, maybe not so much to someone else. That's because we
develop an emotional attachment to them. They are like children in many
ways.
Whether you're depressed about the current state of boat prices, the extreme
