Brandon at Pirate Cove had a "New" rudder from "the olde days" last summer when I was repairing 526s with penetrating epoxy.

might still have it at a good price. Pirate Cove

given choice off shore ... balanced rudder. I think it also helps with autohelm for cruisers.

there is another thread on the site that takes that conversation pretty far.
