My 40 (not the aft cabin) has the drive installed upside down and bolted to the cockpit floor. I would think there would be enough space for the tiller arm as mine has one installed. The aft cabin model should not be that much different back there...but perhaps they are.

The aft part should be similar to most C&C 40's. Thanks David. Specifically I was looking for ideas around the quadrant. Right now the quadrant is tight between the rudder tube and the deck and there is no space. I have seen others online who have used the existing quadrant but I view this as option B. So I like to see what others have done and then decide on the scope. Thanks Dave for the link, shelf looks good and will ado[pt some ideas. I plan to use an Octopus drive and Raymarine head.

I have looked below and it is clear that I will need to make some modifications to support a tiller arm. I was wondering if there are any other 40 owners who could share pictures of their installations. Currently I have a wheel pilot and it is good for motoring and light winds. Looking for something more capable. Thanks in advance Don Marlin _______________________________________________ Thanks everyone for supporting this list with your contributions.
