I have a Qcc400x with a smartrack rudder there is a 5in pin that goes through the rudder and the brackett. I just had mine drop out as I was headed back home today. Is there a good way to keep this from happening.

Hmm. I had that happen a couple weeks also.
I just went to Home Depot, and got a threaded
rod with some washers and lock nuts. That seems
to do the trick. Never did get on the water, though,
the wind never dropped below 25 kts.

That sound like a great idea! Off to Home Depot tommorrow after I get out of work.
Thanks for the tip

Instructions,
on a SmartTrack system that I purchased to retrofit a boat indicate that you should put a slight bend in the pin, that will keep it from slipping out.
