| Norcalsailing report featuring Summer Palace:
http://www.norcalsailing.com/entries/2012/06/05/ditchrun2.html#.T-iWoI2Mfqs Below quoted from Pressure Drop: Drew Scott was helming a F-28. "My crew is starting to swing around to pick me up when El Raton, in perfect control slides up beside me and asks if I would like to get picked up. They had already doused their chute and stopped beside me. I took their offer and got back into a boat (trying to stop a lightweight trimaran next to someone when it is blowing in the mid-20s is not easy so I figured I would not turn down El Raton. My crew ably finished the race on Papillon, only one boat behind El Raton! And I had many adventures with El Raton, but that is their story to tell. So, a great big thank you to the Ray Lotto and the crew of El Raton for pulling my soggy hide out of Suisun Bay!! Drew Scott Papillon (most of the time)" |

| Author: Ralph Deeds Subject: Rudder Bearing Question Info: (14259 views) Posted: Tuesday 4-17-07 05:42:14 PM |
:: I own #93 in Michigan.
::
:: I noticed that the lower bearing is loose in the
:: 'pocket'. Both bearings appear to be good on the rudder
:: post (no slop).
::
:: Do you think I could just lower the rudder, drop the
:: lower bearing, put some 5100 (or silicone?) around the
:: bearing O.D., then just push the bearing tightly back in
:: with the rudder and replace the collar?
::
:: Would that seem to be an adequate procedure?
::
:: Bob
