I need a rudder for a 76 Ski Nautique. I have both parts so repair is an option. Would like feedback on that. |

Eric, Whats wrong with your rudder and port? Repair is an option depending on whats wrong. ------------- /diaries/details.asp?ID=1622" rel="nofollow - 54 Atom /diaries/details.asp?ID=2179" rel="nofollow - 77 Tique 64 X55 Dunphy Keep it original, Pete < |

| The rudder is broken in two at the base of the port. most likely part of the accident that damaged the boat. Port does not appear damaged. |

Eric, Since the rudder shaft is in two pieces, then I'd have to say you do need a new or used rudder. I would not suggest a repair. What other damage was done to the boat? Pictures? ------------- /diaries/details.asp?ID=1622" rel="nofollow - 54 Atom /diaries/details.asp?ID=2179" rel="nofollow - 77 Tique 64 X55 Dunphy Keep it original, Pete < |

Prop was trashed. significant damage to port side from 6" to almost the wind shield. Need to figure out if drive shaft was damaged.

Wow! You do have a project ahead of you. Keep us informed and the pictures coming. If the prop was trashed, I'd say there's a good chance the shaft is too. Don't forget the strut ether. On the shaft, I suggest an ARE replacement. ------------- /diaries/details.asp?ID=1622" rel="nofollow - 54 Atom /diaries/details.asp?ID=2179" rel="nofollow - 77 Tique 64 X55 Dunphy Keep it original, Pete < |

What is ARE? |

Eric, The ARE prop shaft is a double taper design. (taper for the prop and taper at the trans coupling) Many here including myself have used it. It greatly reduces R&R of the shaft. The original single taper shaft is a interference fit at the trans coupling that requires heat shrinking the coupling to the shaft. The ARE system cost is about the same you would pay for a single taper. http://elberts.com/driveshaft.pdf" rel="nofollow - Here's a link to the ARE explaning how it works. ------------- /diaries/details.asp?ID=1622" rel="nofollow - 54 Atom /diaries/details.asp?ID=2179" rel="nofollow - 77 Tique 64 X55 Dunphy Keep it original, Pete < |

| I don't know of any available but in hopes of assisting in your search... You have 2 rudder options. 1)buy a new tabbed rudder... There are a few part numbers to choose from but you want the direct driver version with the 1-1/4" port. $$$. 2) the original rudder is a 11a, and came in most 18'+ direct drive cc's starting in 1970. |
