I have a 35MkII. I had a crack near the top of the rudder. I thought I fixed it by wrapping the crack with a couple of sheets of glass, fairing etc. Attempted to seal the shaft. I was new and didn't know anything about fixing boats. Anyway it cracked again. Learned about draining the rudder in the winter. Did that but did not fix the crack. Next haul out the skin was gone from my rudder and most of the foam. The stock has a steel plate welded to it and was in good shape. I had it repaired for around 3 boat bucks Cdn. The guy who did it foamed and faired the shape and then wrapped cloth completely around it, faired and interprotected it. Only one season in so fingers crossed it won't split again.
