[quote=mgoltsman]Yep, that's the one that has the play - the lock-pin hole. Not enough to put any metal tube in it though - none that I can feel by hand, in fact. But after I lock the rider and pop it out, I can move the lock pin down by a smidge. I've been playing with it just now, and it's certainly getting tighter as I screw the lock pin further into the rudder.
So here's another question - is there such a thing as a too high "break-away tension of rudders"? My "bad" rudder now takes a considerable effort to unlock if I hold the blade under my armpit tiller up and push away on the tiller with the other arm. The "good" rudder, however, locks too strongly for me to unlock in that fashion. So, is my "good" rudder over-tight, or do I need to keep tightening the "bad" rudder?<!-- editby --><em>Edited by mgoltsman on Jul 30, 2014 - 08:44 PM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
