Any relevance ie. Not tied up bad vibration in tiller same under sail if say I went to1800 rpm bad vibration hard to pull starboard or port

 

A lot of tiller vibrate for one reason or other. From memory of other threads:-

 

loose rudder

prop out of balance (either physically or because its fouled)

bent rudder

shape of rudder so that the prop wash affects it more

bearings worn

 

The list goes on

 

as to hard to pull port or starboard at 1800, could be be that the rudder isnt balanced, so the faster you go the harder it is to move the tiller. or you could eat more wheetabix

 

ETA. search in the forum for "rudder" and there are a few threads discussing this point

Sounds like something fouling the prop. or wrapped around the rudder. Could be a bent blade or the rudder has come out of the cup on the skeg.
