So I committed to replacing my shoe today after counting the number of holes in it (12 all over) and due to the fact that the rudder bearing I want to use will not be able to bolt to it because it is too short. Just going to be easier and better job to start over. Section is 1/2" C channel 4" x 2". Big fun.
I have heard the correct bronze is referred to as 85-5-5-5 for use in this application but thought I would ask the forums advice.
Also need a good source for silicon bronze carriage/machine bolts. Online or in SW Connecticut if anyone knows one.
