You should check out Booth Rudders: http://boothboats.ca/rudders
I don't have one, but they've been talked about on the list before. Last I heard, about $400. Of course, if your rudder truly has been built-up, you should be able to take it back down, too. Your best bet would be to contact Catalina directly. Your second best bet would be to walk through a yard and measure them yourself. I can easily find 7-10 within two or three marinas, but you may not have that many around. Good luck.

The bidding closed without a winner. It might still be available.

I have been told that there was an extra 6"-12" added to the front of the rudder before I acquired the my boat. The tiller will throw the helmsman around in average winds. Does anyone have some proven dimensions I could use to re-build my rudder with. Your help would be very appreciated. Thanks, Max
