Gotta replace those frayed meathooks on the steering system, and re-tension it. I have about 1" of play on either side which is not only dangerous, but very annoying. This page will detail the installation of an Edson chain and cable replacement kit, as well as lubrication of the system.
Overall an easy job except for adjusting tension at the steering quadrant - that was a tigh quarters nightmare, but once done it didn't need another look for years.

In the fall of 2009 I began my journey as the owner of a twenty-seven foot 1977 Canadian Sailcraft sailboat. With only five lessons and a dream leading the way, I had become a boat owner. This blog captures my thoughts and experiences as a sailor determined to discover what lies over the horizon.
