Rudder post spacer
Ryan,
Thank you for the reply. I have read your previous posts relative to your installation (as well as every other post I could get my hands on). What material did you use for the spacer? As the quadrant appears to be up as high as possible almost to the deck bottom, I was thinking of putting the tiller arm down as low as possible. I was also wondering about the possibility of mounting the arm facing aft so I could have more room as the engine compartment is pretty crowded around the post area. This way I thought I could glass in and reinforce the plywood panel separating the engine area from the helm seat storage area and put the ram and mount back there. I am going down this weekend to look things over and get an exact dimension of the rudder post so I can order the tiller arm. At the same time I will examine the mounting possibilities.Does this sound feasible to you? I have the new Sitex display and "brains" package along with the Octopus ram, hydraulics are not separate but are mounted on the ram.
Thanks for the
help!!
