Post subject: Rudder problems
Archived from groups: rec>boats>building, others (more info?)

I have a Prout 37 foot catamaran. Both rudders show signs of wear since
rotation can be detected between the rudder shaft and the blade. Does
anyone know how these rudders are constructed and how I should set
about the repair.
Many thanks
Tony
