Re: Whetherto replace bronze rudder with stainless
|
Yes. a stainless steel blade would react with a bronze stock to the detriment of both. Also, as a general rule, avoid using stainless steel below the waterline. This includes fastenings. As the rudder will spend a lot of its time in this environment, I think that this is another reason for not going that way.
