pm7771 Posted November 10, 2003 Share Posted November 10, 2003 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pm7771 Posted November 10, 2003 Author Share Posted November 10, 2003 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
