You guys that trailer long distance with your rudders on really like sloppy steering. I [b][i]never[/i][/b] trailer with the rudders on. Not to Mexico, Coeur D' Alene Idaho, or all parts California and Arizona.
I align my rudders with a 2 mm toe in. I bet the slop in your steering, from the tiller handle to the blade, is five times that.
Trailering with the weight of the rudders on creates wear in the rudder pivots, the gudgeon mounts, the steering linkage, and enhances the gap between the castings and the rudder blade.
You'll note that NO catamaran ever came with a factory device that holds up the rudders while you trailer any considerable distance.
