Welcome to PocketShip.net! This bulletin board is for builders of the Chesapeake Light Craft-John C. Harris "PocketShip" design, a 15-foot micro cruiser sailboat built from a kit or plans.
This site gathers PocketShip builders in one place. Here you can share photos, tips, questions, and---eventually---your sailing adventures in PocketShip! CLC will also post design updates and tips here as they come up.
We'll try to knock down spam as quickly as possible.
In the stock build there isn't (I believe). It doesn't come out in practice. I did eventually put one in on my boat - just drilled a hole through the end of the tiller where it exits the rudder, and tied a small piece of rope through it. That blocks the tiller from pulling through.
