Is your rudder fiberglass or composite? How old, condition...? Where are you located?

I believe it is fiberglass and it's 6 years old.

I'm in Springfield IL.

I can send you photos if you supply me your email.

Hi Michael,

is your rudder still available? I am in St. Louis and I can drive to Springfield to get it if there is no one in front of me in line for it.

Cheers

Jean
By the way, I bought Ken´s trailer and I got it this sunday, thank you for the posting. Ken is a great guy.

I have a brand new Catalina 25 balanced rudder for sale, heavily laid up with epoxy resin and glass fiber over waterproof plywood core.

Five years ago I was asked to fabricate a new, balanced rudder for our club's 25', when the original rudder, 30+ years old, was lost in a grounding. I have pro level skill and experience with woodwork and fiberglass. Since it was efficient of labor, I built 2 at the same time and I've been storing the 2nd. I'm gonna sell it because I don't want to store it anymore.

The club's has been in the water for 4 1/2 years and stood up really well, with no faults, checks or cracks. It vastly improved performance of the tiller autohelm and of the boat. The one I'm selling has never been in the water. It's been painted with 4 coats ablative below the waterline, maroon stipe at the waterline and white above. It does not have pintles...if you buy it to replace an old style rudder the thickness is the same and you should be able to mount the existing pintles. I also made a couple of extra straight tillers and can supply one of these fitted if you're missing a tiller.

Construction is heavier and more durable than on the balanced rudders I've seen supplied commercially. I haven't taken pics yet but plan to, and I'll forward them to anyone here who's interested. I'm thinking about $385 for the rudder alone, buyer pays shipping. As soon as I get the pics I'll put them up on the swap meet page, but noticed this thread and why not.
