A good buddy of mine rebuilt his Jeanneau rudder – it came out great! It is now 
a year old and just went back in the water for the season. I’ll try to get some 
pictures.

Subject: Re: Stus-List Replacing a CnC 44 Rudder

 

Thanks everyone,

I've looked into both Foss Foam and Competition Composites. Both options are 
landing well into the $5000 cdn range (including freight) which is way beyond 
my budget. Foss Foam doesn't have a C&C44 Rudder mold but can try to "match" 
something similar which scares me a little and it's roughliey $1200 US to get 
it to Canada. Competition has a very expensive high-tech process using CAD 
software and a milling machine which I'm sure is standard for any Americas Cup 
contender but drives the price as expected.

 

 

Has anyone tried to re-build their own rudder? - I've been told carving 15lb 
density rigid foam and encapuslating is the way to go - like this:
