Posted November 10, 200321 yr After a pretty good cold water shuttle paddle today (North River)- we lost a WS Epic off the trailer heading back to our Scituate put-in. The fall ripped out the rudder. Anyone know of a good source for a rotomolded rudder repair? Much appreciated for any leads.Peter McLaughlinPlymouth
November 10, 200321 yr Author I should add that the cause of the loss of this (Diane Manganaro's) members boat was a rotted strap on a 1-1/2 year old trailer. Beware; the strap looked good generally; I used it earlier on the day on my Sirius, but I'd guess as a permanent strap on a trailer UV got to it and weakened it prematurely. Check your straps & replace them if you have any question. They're too cheap to take any risk, not to mention the hazards of a dropped boat in traffic.Peter McLaughlinPlymouth
