Does anyone have the dimensions for machining of rudder bushes for a Westerly Storm Cruiser (33).
Grateful for any advice on this.

Trafalgar Marine in Fareham advised me that they would need the old ones from my Typhoon as a pattern as they didn’t have drawings. It transpired that my stiff steering was caused by biofouling on the rudder stock which was easily removed, so replacement wasn’t necessary. My bushes were very securely glued in place and even with an improvised puller and considerable force we couldn’t remove them. Steering is still fine and problem free after a W-E transatlantic crossing and lots of subsequent coastal cruising.Does anyone have the dimensions for machining of rudder bushes for a Westerly Storm Cruiser (33).
