Took my boat out of the water
Took my boat out of the water today everything went well. Until I got home and backed it in the yard. Long story short I broke the rudder. Snapped it off. I know I need the stuffing box assembly and rudder. I removed the parts. the stuffing box measure 3.5 x 3.5 and the piece that goes through the hull is approx 2 1/8" long. The outside dia is 1 1/4" and the inside dia is 1" the shaft of the rudder is approx 8" I can't get the broken piece of the shaft out of the stuffing box. The rudder it self is 10" at the top. The blade is approx 10" too. This came off a 1974 25' Chris Craft Explorer with a BB chevy in it. I found a Stuffing box on ebay but haven't had any luck on the rudder. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
