The tube coming up from the rudder on mine has an outside diameter of 1.5", as well as a slot for a key.
I would include a picture, but I'm not exactly sure how

Re: C26 / Rotten wood in cockpit lockers
Brigadoon: I couldn't find any scotch Brite for a rotary tool, but found a stripper pad. It's much stiffer and courser so I'm not sure if it'll work without cutting right through the fiberglass, but I'll give it a shot. If not, I'll see if ordering online will increase my selection options. Thanks f...

C26 / Rotten wood in cockpit lockers
I am trying to go through the boat and seal up any holes where water can get in. The previous owner loved using silicone and there's a number of leaks. I'm drilling out and filling with thickened epoxy where possible, or counter sinking and using butyl tape where I still need through bolting. Right ...

Re: Gotta replace the broken keel cable
I'd love to see any pictures you take!
How are you lifting the boat? I need to repaint the bottom of my 26 next year, and potentially do maintenance on the keel as well. I'm not sure if or how I'm going to do it...

Re: Chrysler 26 Draft
I'm primarily interested in the draft with the keel fully retracted, but I'd appreciate any numbers you've got!

Re: Chrysler 26 Draft
The boat has both a depth sounder and a fish finder, so I'm hoping to be able to closely monitor the depth. The Marina is located on the muddy shore of a lake, so waves shouldn't be an issue outside of wake from other boats and a bump to the bottom hopefully wouldn't result in damage. Last year I sa...

Chrysler 26 Draft
I have recently purchased a Chrysler 26 and had some questions regarding the draft. Everywhere I've read states the draft is 2'3", but when measuring from the keel trunk to the painted waterline the distance looks much closer to 32" than 27". I figured maybe the paint isn't at the wat...
