In some cases it seems C&C did both hollow tube and solid bar, at the same
time. On a construction drawing for the C&C 37 R and 37+, dated 1990, it
shows the rudder post to be:
"3.15" O.D x 1.97" I.D. Hollow S.S. Bar w.2" dia. S.S. Round Bar pressed
and welded" with the 2" round bar extending out
So there are C&Cs out there with both solid and tube stocks.
The ideal tube for rudder posts was Schedule 160 pipe. But, when you phone up
a supplier and ask for some, he says 'How many thousand feet would you like.
That's a special order you know' . . . . .
So, you end up balancing between a

Bill –
Are you applying online? Rudder type is on the form, but I don’t recall seeing
a question on the shaft
FWIW – my ’84 37 is solid and, assuming it’s original, would bet money yours is
too. With rudder shaft specs alone it’s such a minor impact that A) It
doesn’t justify asking the

Every hollow shaft I've seen appears as a pipe. Being that you can look
down the end of it. If the ends are capped with welded covers then the
welds are evident. It's also pretty common to have some type of bolt or
rod extend through the shaft for a number of different purposes. If you
