Rudder | Test Fit

I left the rudder pivot eyes to cure for a while and then had a quick test fit of the rudder and tiller.

Here it is seen from starboard.


I was a bit dismayed to find that the slot for the tiller is slightly too low in the transom, as you can see here.


And here.


It works just fine but it looks like some cosmetic surgery will be required at some point.

I also think it could be a little wider to accommodate tiller movement.

I doubt very much that this will be the only modification!
