Need rudder hardwear and mast materials, found mast materials but need to know length, seen lots of comments and am thinking 24 feet each for better sail clearance. Other hardwear will come in a few months websites to purchase? Need input and advice so I can do the rudder and the centerboard in the house inside the sunroom. Karen said I could build and glass both in the house as long as all epoxy stays on the project and gets nowhere else. Hull is preped for final epoxy coats and marine paint as soon as the weather cooperates. It sits in the drive waiting for warm and dry cause K took over the car port, kicked us both out. All tapping glass and keel installed, will be working on drilling brass keel plate 1x3/16 pieces paid about $90 with shipping. Any tips on installing, should I seal with calking, set in calking and screw down, ideas? K going to Japan and I'll resume control of garage to build the deck, I hope to launch in June..............

Input Appreciated

Thanks, Jim A

B&B Yachts had some great prices for rudder hardware... I did find some odds and ends on the duck works website...

Do you have access to a port supply account?
