Ce que couvre cette vidéo

Leo Goolden hauls the 1910 sailboat Tally Ho at a boatyard to address a stiff rudder that has hindered steering and compromised the performance of the autopilot and trim tab.0:11 After initial attempts to improve movement by installing Zerk fittings and injecting grease into the gudgeons, the rudder remains difficult to operate, prompting a full removal for inspection.16:10 To lift the heavy rudder, he secures a borrowed chain hoist to the boom and uses control lines to manage the assembly as it clears the gudgeons.18:18 The rudder binds during the lift, causing it to jump, but the control lines prevent damage to the hull or fittings.22:57 Once clear, the rudder is lowered onto sawhorses for a detailed examination of the pintles and gudgeons to identify potential misalignment or mechanical wear.20:17 The project aims to restore smooth steering before the boat returns to the water.24:53
