Don, Thanks for the heads up. I was looking at that earlier tonight and was going to ask about that. I tried to back the screws out, of course with no luck so far. Perhaps a bigger screw driver may help, or like you said, drill the old screws out, and hopefully be able to get new ones in? W

Alex, I had a plastics shop make new upper bearings for Touche' from Delrin.  My only suggestion, make them thicker than original.  UHMW might also work. I wouldn't worry about the elevation of the top of the rudder tube. It should be fine. Dennis C. Touche' 35-1 #83 Mandeville, LA >

I did mine 2x and if you are comfortable with working with goopy stuff, like SIKA 295 or GE SILICONE then it should be easy, but here are a few pointers: If you router it, see if you can keep the bit cool. Otherwise a local internal stress develops which will result in premature crazing. If po
