Re: Broken Rudder
Thanks very much Ron - that helps. I am pretty sure your and my rudder were the same as # are close. I was actually the first one with the longer centerboard - I know because I broke 2 of them before they made them stronger for later models
I will see who in the bay area might be able to make me a rudder... I might be back for more info when I do.
thanks
Simon

Re: Broken Rudder
Since my boat is out of the water I had a chance to go down and take some measurements of my rudder. Mine is an earlier boat #311. I have attached a Word document that has a diagram but is not drawn to scale. I hope this helps.

Re: Broken Rudder
I have a new ( to me) 06 model. It is on the hard. I could easily put a piece of wrapping paper against it and draw an outline if that were a help.
would not cost a great deal to mail. Perhaps I could shoot a few pictures and email them to anyone who needed them.
Let me know

Re: Broken Rudder
Gary and Lefty - thanks again for the offers. I will let you know what I need as we get through this process.
I finally was able to haul Halcyon today and discovered that I did indeed have the metal "skeleton" of the rudder left, albeit someone bent. Since i didn't hit anything - it must of bent as the rudder delaminated and sheered off. Here are a few pics for your edification...
I am working with a boat yard to buid/rebuild a new one and will let you know how I get on

Re: Broken Rudder
Yes - got my first quote to rebuild the rudder - $3500 !! Trying to get more quotes , but not having a mold makes it very labor intensive..
I got my replacement CBs from PCI while they were still around.

Re: Broken Rudder
Simon,
When I had CLC build me a new centerboard, they said putting fiberglass and gelcoat on the CB would double the cost. Maybe they could make you a wood one and coat it with epoxy as they did the CB, thus saving you some money!
