[C320-list] Winkler - Rudder Install

[Ralph Winkler]

Hi Bill,

Hope that you had a great sail in the BVI.  I'm envious.  We sailed down there about 8 yrs ago and loved it.  

I've installed the Rudder interface and its working great.  For the rudder stop, you're right about needing people with small fingers, my daughter-in-law couldn't even get it done.  Actually, I found that by widening the opening in the PVC block for the bolt heads with a rasp file (removed about 1/4" on the inside) I was able to install them.  Since my C320 #394 is a '96 I have the older 7/8" pedestal tubes and that turned out to be the REAL challenge but we got on the 3rd try with lots of soap.  Any new wires from here on will be on the outside.

Thanks for a GREAT set-up and a superb kit, it was worth ever penny of your price.  You should see your check today or by Monday.
