I'm not sure what your are describing. Is the rudder shaft loose in the thru-hull fitting ( try repacking the shaft) or are you talking about the linkage connected to the tiller arms. This is a common wear point that I usually fix by drilling the fitting and installing a larger size pin. Capt . George
