Paul - I have a rudder that was damaged and repaired. The repair is fine, it's just that is is about 10 pounds heavier than the class minimum weight. Read about it in this thread. With weight info at this thread. PM me if interested.

The repaired rudder is the one on the floor.

I have a rudder that has some ZITS. No cracks as far as i can see. I am smoothing out the Zits. I have never done this before so I am going to give it a try! I had it sold but the fellow decided to rebuild the one he has. My ruder shows a little moisture but it looks fine, no splitting or swelling or any signs of more than the Zits!
