[quote=Edchris177]Sorry for the delay, it was a long week end up here in Canada. Between some guests, mucho Cerveza, & big winds, the photos got pushed down the list.
We did manage 21.8 mph on the 5.7, & 20.8 mph on the 5.0. Winds were 50 clicks,(30 mph), so much of it was survival sailing, including one double trapped pitchpole of the 5.0.
I didn't have a proper camera, had to use my cellphone. The lens makes the photo look like the rudder is not lined up with centreline of boat, but it is.
The pics with the tape measure didn't turn out to well, this one was the best. The bend is gentle & begins just aft,(maybe an inch) of the stern, appeared to start just over the pin, & ends about an inch in front of the stern.
You can ascertain the amount of bend from where the tube ends, almost over the inner beam strap.
This is an '84 model.
