I got rid of the bungie cords and use two pull cord lines one to pull the rudders down and one to pull the rudders up. I used two Ronstan Cleats so that I can adjust the amount of UP or the amount of DOWN I want and it stays there. I also got rid of the slop in the tiller/tie bar connection by using tie-rod ends instead of the existing connectors. I got the idea from a prior posting. Can't take credit for what I stole!!! <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
