In my continuing quest to resurect a derelict H16 I have come to my next hurdle: The rudder locking mechanism and cam on both rudder castings is shot. Replacing the cams does not look like a problem. One of them has already been drilled out and replaced with the screw insert. The problem is getting out the Delrin screw inside the casting. They are both frozen solid and one of them is broken off. How do I get them out?!?!?

As an aside, I've finished repairing the hulls and added two layers of glass tape to the keels using West System epoxy. They look and feel good. Next is painting them...
