Topic: Replacing rudder cheeks
Hi all,
The rudder cheeks on Tess are checked on the top and I was thinking I'd fix them. I ran it by some wood working folks I know and they suggested just replacing them for a couple reasons: 1) it would be easier than fixing them and 2) it would be stronger, especially considering the torsion loads the cheeks carry. We have a local wood worker friend so it shouldn't be too much of a problem but I was just wondering if anyone else has done this. Anyone?
