Francois,
The "correct" method isn't that much more labor intensive. You're probably
going to have to glass in a platform for the linear drive and one for a
rudder position sensor. You can tie off a line to the bail on the rudder
stalk and then lower it, even while in the water. Pull the suppor
for asking. I was able to free-up one jaw
and ended-up replacing the other which I bought new old stock for a
fraction of the price...

Hi Chuck,
Hi Chuck,
How about making a custom tiller arm that fits into the emergency tiller
fitting above the radial drive? I saw that done online and thought that
was rather clever. I've also been mulling this over for a couple years
now and that's the best "easy" solution I saw.
I have a similar s
I did see them. That's one crowded space!

Chuck and all — the steering configuration belowdecks on the Landfall 38s
cannot support a tiller arm. The quadrant is directly below the cockpit sole,
and directly above the fuel tank. There simply is no room for anything on the
rudder post. Wal Bryant got a good photo of this area when he r
s how it would be installed otherwise.
