Hi Paul,glad that I could help-
I am slipping Sea Rambler this week and am going to remove rudder for its first service (SR was launched in May 2014) The Hanse support payers provide a copy of Jefa’s fact sheet and instruction that the rudder post to the blade should be inspected every 3 years - have you done yours yet? And if so was the process the same as covered in the relative Jeff video? As an aside I have spoken with the Australian distributor (almost next door to Rivierra at Coomera) and he supports the guidance as I would expect , however he said it is a maintenance issue that many neglect with result around 10 years of total bearing replacement due to the #haft expanding via electrolysis/ rubbish build on the shaft which makes the delron ball pressuring the side rollers leading increased friction etc Peter

Hi Peter
I wasn't aware that Jefa recommend that, it seems quite a short cycle. Night Train was slipped last May and we partially dropped the rudder (the yard we use has hydraulic trolleys rather than travel lifts so getting enough height to take the rudder out completely is an issue) All looked ok after 6 years so we just pressure washed it and put it back. When we first got the boat there was an earth cable fixed to the rudder quadrant, on advice from Jefa and subsequently confirmed by Hanse we removed this, so I hope electrolysis isn't an issue. All the best Paul

Hi again Paul
This is link to Jefa instructions - https://www.jefa.com/maintenance/maintenance.htm where it mentions every 3 years Didn’t slip Sea Rambler today due to rain forecast so have rebooked after Easter and will see how it goes - agent said it only takes about an hour to remove - be interesting if that is an hour by the clock or “about an hour “ in boat yard time Peter

hello
Please see my 2nd or 3 posting - it clarifies price from one for less than $20 to 3 for $21 plus postage - I think it is the first item on the page. I haven’t followed up the other matter yet related to rudder service as my slip time allocation is not until next week. Peter |
