Hi,

I've recently fitted new rudder castings to my Hobie 17 and after drilling the holes using the Template from the Hobie Cat website...I now have a big problem.

With the Slider in the Upper casting fully forward, there is still 1/4" plus gap between the Rudder Forward edge and the Lower Casting.

Went for a quick sail and she has huge Weather Helm...and it can't be adjusted out the way it is.

Does anyone have another Drilling template that they can email me to try.

The castings are the same as the ones on the Hobie 18, so a drilling template for the TheMightyHobie18 would be great.

Any advise???

Thanks in advance.
