    Description

    AMF Alcort "Old Style" Sunfish Rudder.  It is nice condition and comes with a modern tiller extension.  The "old style" rudder is for Sunfish 1971 and prior with bronze hull fittings.  The rudder blade is revarnished.  The stripe on the blade is paint, and it is beneath the varnish.  The stripe was added to make it easy to see if any weeks are wrapped around the rudder.  The reinforced rudder head was a part sold by AMF Alcort to replace the smaller, original equipment piece.   The tiller extension is original equipment from a 2013 Sunfish, and has never been used. It is an aluminum tube with a foam handle.  It attaches to the rudder with a universal joint instead of a bolt.  The closeup picture of the rudder head shows a small crack in the wood.  It was repaired with a glued-in dowel years ago, and the repair has held up perfectly ever since.  The tiller has some wear from the bridle rubbing against it, but its in good shape and should last forever.
    All parts are genuine AMF Alcort Sunfish parts.  No hull fittings are included with this rudder - this mounts on the bronze hull fittings of 1971 and prior Sunfish.
