I have not seen anything anywhere near as chunky as the SS Mk2 4 hole gudgeon.I assume that it is the 1/2 inch pivot bolt hole that's worn .The Mk 1's gudgeons appear to have a different hole pattern.You might find someone at Seascrew who perhaps didn't supply them but knows who did.Might be easier though to have the gudgeon drilled out and rebushed.

Thank you Peter ,I've been looking at a parker 26 in. the same boat yard and it certainly has a more robust , heavier plate section . Certainly bushing out is an option, if there isn't a small pile of suitable replacements lurking out there.

Not sure how the 275 ones compare - pic attached.

I made some acetal bushes to take the slop out of mine, this required using a smaller through-bolt, but it seems to be working well.

Regards
