James, sailing an Alberg 30 named Triteia on a circumnavigation, dry-fits stainless steel rudder hardware fabricated by Rolly Tasker Sails at a boatyard in Thailand.1:21 The rudder build follows a 2021 collision with a partially submerged sea container between Los Angeles and Hawaii that broke the rudder free from the tiller post, forcing James to steer 1,000 miles to Hawaii using a drogue.1:01 The original 61-year-old all-wood rudder was deemed untrustworthy for the remainder of the circumnavigation during a haul-out in Langkawi.0:55 The fiberglass rudder blank receives multiple layers of glass mat and woven roving before the stainless tangs and gudgeons from Rolly Tasker are positioned.2:14 James drills initial bolt holes, identifies a factory-drilled crooked hole in the original hull fitting, and returns the metal parts to Rolly Tasker for trimming and reshaping.7:41 Bedding with West Systems 610 thickened epoxy under the stainless parts, using Saran Wrap as a release agent, follows the dry-fit.24:35 James addresses the dissimilar-metals question directly: a shipwright with 30-plus years of experience confirmed that 316 stainless isolated from electrical sources requires no zinc anodes, citing the original bronze pintles and gudgeons still uncorroded after 61 years as supporting evidence.15:00
