OEM rudder and tiller assembly and the black plastic gudgeon plate (pictured) that attaches to transom. For same thing but with our better rudder instead of OEM rudder, see item 8025. If you have the old metal fitting (gudgeon) to receive the rudder pin, and you need a rudder replacement, then you need this item or the 8025 because the metal-to-metal system has been discontinued. This is now the OEM factory standard equipment. But remember: for our "High Performance Rudder and Tiller" plus the gudgeon order item 8025

The rudder and the tiller are what let you steer the boat. The rudder is the part that goes in the water, and the tiller is the part you hold on to. The two pins that hold the rudder to the boat are called pintles, and they fit into metal rings at the back of the boat called gudgeons.
We often leave the rudders attached to the Rhodes 19s because it saves time. But when there are storms in the area we stow the rudders so they are not damaged. And sometimes when racing we stow the rudders to prevent barnacles from growing on them.
So you may find that you need to attach the rudder before you can sail. Be careful when lifting the rudder because it is awkward and heavy. And they don't float, so you may want a crewmate to help you. Don't let it drag on the deck or it will leave a mark.
To get started, flip the handle over so it's on the same side as the pins. Then carefully lower the rudder over the back of the boat and try to get the bottom pin in the bottom hole. The water might fight you a little, so be patient.
The bottom pin is longer than the top pin, so if you don't put the bottom pin all the way, you should be able to get the top pin in without the bottom pin coming loose.
Once both pins are in, give the rudder a good shove to make sure the pins are all the way down.

The rudder head complete includes all of the hardware but does not include the blade, tiller, or rudder pintle pin. The pivot bolt is not installed as the old rudder head should be used as a template to ensure it is drilled in the right location. The gudgeons are included but not fully installed as each rudder has to be fitted to the boat. Instructions are included as to how to fit the rudder head. Please select below if you would like to add a rudder lift kit or rudder blade hold down pin installed. Please allow 1 – 8 weeks for your rudder head to be built and shipped.
Please select if you would like to have your new rudder head fabricated with a custom hold down option

What is recommended for use as a rudder shear pin? Would a 1/8" nylon bolt work? What would be best? Thanks, Dave S/V Trial and Error 1981 Mac 25 San Diego
I'd search the archives. There have been several opinions/recommendations

If you still want to use a bolt, the 1/4" nylon toilet bowl bolts work well.
I second the auto release cleat. You'll never go back to shear pins.

I know this is a dumb question/statement but the specs say the Mac 26s has a minimum draft of 1.25'. Would anyone dare go into 2' of water with the rudder pulled up that far? Sure you can pull the keel up, but if you have a shear pin on your rudder, your minimum draft is now like 3.5 feet and without it, one might break a tiller arm, rudder or his back steering it.
you can steer with the rudder straight back, but if you try to turn too hard you'll snap something (probably the tiller). I have had to do this a few times.
I find it easier to steer with the help of the outboard when the rudder is up. Just make sure you turn them the same way....lol
I haven't exactly measured but I would guess that I have been in water that shallow using the motor only. Not sailing. I can steer with either the motor or the rudder. (some couple them together and steer with both) When steering with the rudder just make don't try to make any sudden moves. If you need to turn suddenly, use the motor. That's one of major advantages our boats have over fixed keel boats. Water ballast goes one step better. If you get stuck and can't pull yourself off, you can dump the ballast and then pull yourself off. That's 1200 lbs you can dump when needed.

are used with inboard-mounted Rudders to reduce friction where the Rudder passes through the deck and/or hull. They are commonly produced with a Flanged head. Rudder Bushings fit over the Rudder under the Rudder Head to reduce wear between the Rudder Head and the Flange Bushing or deck beneath it. They are essentially large precision washers. Rudder Bushings are used with Keel or Skeg-mounted Rudders to reduce lateral friction where the bottom of the Rudder seats in a Rudder Shoe socket or on a Rudder Shoe Pin. If you require Rudder Bushings not listed here, we can custom make the ones you need, given sufficient time. For a quote on Custom Rudder Bushings please forward a sketch of the Bushing(s) you require with precise measurements and all boat details. | |
