1. My boat is an older model and the goose neck is free =
floating....and=20
has no "position". What method of positioning the boom do newer boats=20
have?=20
A: Mine is like yours, I cleat it off so that it won't rise when I =
raise=20
the main.=20
2. This question is more important because I was going to be making a=20
new rudder. The previous owner had made the one on there now. The=20
rudder actually pivots down so far that it goes slightly past vertical =
and starts to angle forward. Is this by design?=20
A: Yes. The boat should steer effortlessly with the rudder in this=20
position. Might I ask why go to the expense and trouble of making a =
new=20
rudder? Even if it is chewed up some, you can use bondo and a sealer =
to=20
repair the one you have.=20
