Re: Stus-List Installing linear autohelm on LF38

Francois, The "correct" method isn't that much more labor intensive. You're probably going to have to glass in a platform for the linear drive and one for a rudder position sensor. You can tie off a line to the bail on the rudder stalk and then lower it, even while in the water. Pull the

Hi Chuck, How about making a custom tiller arm that fits into the emergency tiller fitting above the radial drive? I saw that done online and thought that was rather clever. I've also been mulling this over for a couple years now and that's the best "easy" solution I saw. I have a similar

Jason — there is absolutely no room for a tiller arm on the LF38; you need to attach the ram directly to the quadrant, at the proper distance from the center of the rudder post for the drive you got. One option is to orient the ram forward to aft, on the port side of the rudder post (access
