After reading a few posts of rudder failure on C&C 24s, I thought I should
look into mine.
It seems solid, but how do I know without drilling into it? There is a crack
in the fiberglass at the top of the rudder,
but I can¹t tell how far in it goes unless I dig into it. Any thoughts on

The good news is that you can easily lift the rudder of its hinges and do
the inspection when the boat is in the water.

It turns out there is a hole at the bottom of the rudder, near the leading
edge. It was somewhat plugged with
paint, but I reamed it out a bit. No moisture test yet (not going to spend
money on a pinless meter).

My partner never sailed until she met me. I bought my C&C24 5 years ago, 3
years into our relationship. She was game to try sailing, but the 1st day out
the winds were about 20 knots.
That's a bigger deal on Lake Champlain because the chop is so short compared to
bigger water.

If you are cruising and are not dedicated to the highest possible pointing

I agree with the "run away!" comments. I bought my C&C 24 7 years ago for
$3,600, with a rough working job, an almost new 150 (I think) Genny, a 9.9 hp
outboard that seized up soon after purchase, a trailer. All in all on good
shape. A year later I looked at almost the identical boat for $2,500.
