A gudgeon backer plate for 1971-and-newer AMF Alcort Sunfish is the focus, with Kent Blair explaining its function and why the early molded version differs from the flat metal plate sold new today.0:15 The gudgeon is the fitting on the stern that connects to the spring pop-up rudder via four screws.0:43 On early 1970s hulls, the transom interior has a small curved cove — a remnant of the original bronze rudder system's carriage bolt recess — and the period-correct backer plate was molded to match that curve.1:07 Later hulls have a flat transom, and the replacement plate sold new is flat.1:50 Owners converting an early hull with the curved interior to the newer spring-rudder system need the molded curved plate, not the flat one, for a proper fit.1:36 Blair is sourcing these from an AMF Alcort parts collection and offers them for sale.1:37 Also on hand: carriage bolts for the original bronze rudder system (limited stock), spare 1970s daggerboards, tillers, and hiking sticks for wooden and early fiberglass Sailfish and Sunfish.3:15
