Another quick question... Seems like I asking something everyday. If it's too much let me know....
I'm replacing the base castings for my rudders (I broke them in the surf the second to the last day I was sailing at Pawleys Island, SC) and I noticed that the previous owner had fitted Ty-Raps around that base castings to fill the slot between the base casting and the rudder itself.
Is this standard practice to ensure the rudders don't vibrate in the castings or should I be using Teflon washers or both?
TIA
