I had mine redone last year for my 33 mkII by Competition composite, Ontario. They re used the post and fabricated a new one using the original plan form of the rudder from C&C (ordered at the maritime museum) . The shape was slightly optimized by their designer since the blade could be a bit thinner. The construction is: Divinicell foam core shaped to the foil design with a "computer assisted milling machine" then wrapped with fiberglass and epoxy resin. (vacuum bagged). It is ligher than original. : http://www.fastcomposites.ca/site/ The construction seemed superior to me compared to "original" rudder sold by Southshore yacht and the price was lower including the shipping costs. I'm very pleased with the result, the shape and finish is perfect and i have full confidence in the strenht of the blade. The feel at the helm is superb, i can see the difference with my older rudder than hab been repaired and had lost its symetrie. I d'ont feel any turbulence now. :) So, a good experience on my side with the company. no affiliation. Bruno Lachance Bécassine, 33 mkII 87' New Richmond, Qc.

While not on a 37/40, I replaced my rudder a long time ago on my LF38. Southshore Yachts made it for me...
