How in the world do you handle the main sheet if you are next to the cabin
when sailing?

Replacement rudder results:
The stock tiller from Rudder Craft turned out the be the best fit at the
best price:

I ordered the Style E ($99) tiller L=47", butt W=1.5", h=2.0"
This price is for an unvarnished tiller. Varnishing adds $20 & a tiller
cover costs $39. Shipping is $19
The West Marine & Defender tillers were shorter for the required butt
dimensions. I prefer a longer tiller because it has a better mechanical
advantage when hiking out. If you are sailing single handed it is nice to
hike out far forward, next to the cabin. I thought the tiller cover was
expensive since I can find an old sun umbrella cover some where in the
house.
Defender had the lowest prices if a short tiller is desired.
