Hi Tod -- Do you have a photo or two of the micro block arrangement to raise the rudder? I can't quite picture it.

So, I did that, and mounted a cam cleat on top of the transom. Wow, what a great, easy, upgrade. Highly recommended. Tod
David, Here's the link that was in Tod's email www.bright.net/~htmills/BuscaRudderChafe.jpg Hope this helps Rik david_hill@idg.com wrote:

David, Did that picture in my later post help? If you still need more clarification I could sketch something up. Tod
