I don't have 'drawings' but Foss Foam in Florida might be able to give you some information as they've built replacements. I believe that it's fairly simple with the post extending into the rudder and metal "wings" attached to it at right angles. If you can't get any information, maybe a metal detector or stud detector will give you a clue as to the configuration.

rudder rebuildOur E42 had a delaminated rudder which we tried to have repaired unsuccessfully. We ended up ordering a new rudder from Foam Foss in Florida who are still building Endeavor rudders to original specifications.

OK, this is a good idea to figure where are the metal wings inside with a metal detector. I hope I can fix it without ordering a new one.
I will contact Foss Foam for more info and for a quote, in case of disaster.
Thanks
