I bonded my '82 together over the weekend, very pleased with the early results. However one thing I did notice after everything cured... The port hull/rudder pin is out of plumb by 3-5 degrees. Although the castings were loose, I don't believe there was enough to cheat the hull. So my question is; is this by design or flaw?

Could have happened when the lower gudgeon was mounted 26 years ago. Wouldn't take much of an offset to generate that little angle.

I wouldn't worry about it.
