Thru-hull rudder, broken tiller mount

[andrew]

Recently purchased a 1969 Ericson 23 with a thru-hull rudder assembly. The tiller mount fits into the thru-hull fitting and has, incorporated into one piece of metal, two "pin mounts" (small holes for a bolt to slide through) for the tiller. One of these has been broken off (as can be seen in the photo).

Does anyone know where to find a replacement part, probably the entire thru-hull rudder fitting? If not, what are some suggestions for repairing this?

Thank you,
Andrew

You might want to try and find a used one at Minney's in Newport Beach http://www.minneysyachtsurplus.com/

also Kelly's Marine in San Pedro has some used items. http://www.kellymarine.com/kelly/services.htm

With both places, it's best to go there and rummage around.

Addresses on the web sites above.

Good Hunting!
