Delaminated Catalina 34 MKI Rudder (free for pickup in Chicago)

[Kyle Ewing]

I'm decluttering and am offering for free my original, delaminated rudder from a 1990 fin keel Catalina 34.  Boat has always been in fresh water (Lake Michigan).  Rudder may be useful to someone who has a boat with a bent rudder shaft who needs a straight rudder to rebuild. 

Foam is water logged with delamination at the bottom.  I tried drilling holes to dry over winter and filling with expandable foam for first two years I owned Donnybrook before replacing with a new elliptical rudder.  It's sat on my cradle since.

Free for pickup in Chicago Northwest side (60625 zip) or will deliver/meet a reasonable distance for gas money.

CONSIDERATIONS:  Even though boat was fresh water sailed, I don't know condition of the grid welded to the shaft.  Holes for steering quadrant and tiller cap may not align to another boat.
