Tolly rudder project This is the standard 26' Tolly rudder. This boat has a 255 hp Mercruiser and a V-drive. Note the lowest edge of the rudder in relation to the propeller. |
|
|
The new rudder was designed by a naval architect for this application. Constructed entirely of 316L stainless steel, it flares out 7 degrees on each side to the trailing edge, which is fully radiused. Horizontal components keep water flowing over the rudder rather than spilling over the top or bottom edges. |
|
|
This photo shows the installation; note relationship to propeller. The rudder shaft is lengthened to allow for the upper bearing which must be fabricated in your hull to support this rudder. Rudder and shaft weigh about 12 pounds more than the standard unit. Construction is of 1/4" and 3/8" thick 316L stainless steel, waterjet cut and TIG welded. Installation must be performed by professionals and an upper bearing must be fabricated. This one was installed by Cap Sante Marine in Anacortes, WA |
