Neil,
I drilled a hole about two inches from the bottom or the rudder in the starboard side. I have threaded a machine screw into it. I pull it out at each haul out. I seal it with caulk before launching. Works great. I don’t see much water at all. Sometimes just a few rusty drips over a period of a few days.

Anyone want to suggest the location to drill? We hauled out last night and I am going up to the boat to disconnect batteries on Wednesday. I assume that the drainage holes will be in the lower quadrant of the rudder. Should they be in the side or in the bottom surface (or does it really matter. I never had to do this on my Redwing 35 so this is new to us. Neil Schiller 1983 C&C 35, Mark III, #028 "Grace" White Lake, Michigan
