      Greetings to all.

      I’ve finally got my new (to me) Mk2 boat in the water and just joined this very useful association.

      I have a question, probably the first of many.

      The tiller has been riding down in the rudder stock and wearing the gelcoat of the rear deck through to the fibreglass. That’s now repaired, but I want to prevent this happening. I see there’s a hole in the metal piece on top of the rudder stock into which the tiller fits, and a corresponding hole in the end of the tiller. At present, the tiller doesn’t insert quite far enough for these two holes to line up. Should a bolt be going through there to keep the tiller in place? And should I sand the end of the tiller down so that it inserts fully and the two holes line up?

      Apologies for any incorrect vocabulary and many thanks in advance.

      Best, Nick
