Hey while folks are looking for an extra tiller, if anyone comes across or gets a lead on replacement TILLER CHEEKS (you know, the attachment of the tiller to the rudder stock) please let me know. Some of you may recall the rudder breakage I suffered at nationals last summer, and the rudder is now replaced, but the tiller is loose and unfortunately now cocked some 30 deg. to starboard when the rudder tracks straight. My old cheeks are pretty crappy, and there is also a small issue with the stock alignment, but I really could use new cheeks. Try finding those on Google or at Svendsen's - I haven't been able to - except soliciting someone to custom make, so any leads or suggestions I am grateful for. Thanks!

>>>Last time I broke one, I got an exact replacement at Svendsens. It's was beautifully varnished and cost around $90 if I remember correctly. It still looks great four years later (I have a tiller cover).
