Who makes this helm

I'm looking for an exploded diagram of this helm station but don't know who makes (made) it. I have a 1984 Tayana Vancouver 42, and I believe this is the original. The helm locking wheel is marked with "GD", so it's possible General Dynamics produced the whole thing. The hardware inside and out is all bronze. Specifically, the shift lever is loose because it's missing the inner nylon sleeve. Any help identifying the manufacturer would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Matthew

Mine is a 1989 model and appears different than yours. Certainly the wood wheel is not original equipment. Have you contacted Ta-Yang Shipyards, the builder of the Tayana boats? I have found them very responsive and helpful. Give Mr. Wilson Chang an email including your HIN and he will likely be able to answer your questions. He may be able to direct you to the parts supplier. tayangco@ms15.hinet.net

Thanks for the email contact at Ta-Yang. I've sent Wilson a message along with a couple photos.
