Here is a pic of the deep rudder on the RudderCraft website.

RudderCraft does not have a template for the original/standard rudder. If anyone wants to part with their standard rudder, let me know. john

Bill do you have any pics of that new rudder? It would be interesting to see them.

My notes are from the leading edge and the longer rudder is built from the Farr drawings, the RudderCraft folks obtained original ones.  

If you are having to "pull" the tiller and you hear a scraping sound the odds are pretty good it is bent.  I have one of those!  When we dropped it the local experts shared others experiences with trying to straighten a post and the recommendation was to trim the top trailing edge instead and to leave the post alone.  I have pictures of the repair and glass work done before I decided to get a new rudder instead, let me know and I will share.  Sorry for the hit, I know how scary it was for me!  - bill

I wish I wasn't reading this post but I grounded the rudder on something hard yesterday. When she came off it felt like the the rudder top is binding firmly on the hull especially as the tiller comes through center.
I assume that is bent rudder post? I was going to haul to inspect but I suppose I can just reach under the water and feel if the rudder top is in contact with the hull. Anyone have a spare rudder ... ?

The construction materials listed for the new rudder have epoxy upgrade and fabric upgrade. Are either of these important? Thanks in advance as always, john

also keep your crew on the rail until after you round the mark. Crew tends to get off the rail in preparation for kite hoisting. In heavy air its much better to keep the entire crew on the rail until you are turned down even though your kite may not get up as quickly.

For additional information, you could google 'NACA airfoil'. When I search, a wikpedia article for National Aviation Council of Aeronautics is first on the list and a airfoils tools website is second on the list.
For example, my Merit25 keel/rudder profiles were NACA 0010; a predefined profile. So at the locations were I wanted a template, I would measure the chord length and pop that number in a tool that would generate offsets of the foil vs.increment from the leading edge (as fletch said).
If I make templates for the Laser28, I might see if I can back into one of the NACA profiles to get more data points for the template

Page 663 will give an example of what fletch is talking about.  The book can be found in some library's.  In Buffalo your not allowed to borrow it, viewing only.
