- 1976 Albin 25 DeLuxe
When Manatee (1976 Albin 25) was put down for the long sleep last fall the wheel was free and easy to spin. Manatee was launched today after a long winter storage. When I moved her to our berth at the marina I found the wheel stiff - it takes a good bit of effort to turn it. I have not has the opportunity to inspect the rudder on the hard in advance of launch.
I wonder where I might check to find the problem, and how and what I might lubricate to address this? Ideas?
