New Rudders

Postby philair » Tue Nov 22, 2005 10:26 am

Since Rinehart rudders are no longer available, and Skip Hickman has also retired from the business, any recommendations on a rudder supplier?

Phil,
It might depend of the hull MFG. You might check with Rinehart by email, as I thought I heard he was going to get back into it. He may have some of his old molds. There is a hull standard mold set at David Brawner's being checked out for delivery to Scott Todd. I also heard Mark would make a rudder mold for this standard hull. RMD is a source but he is injured at the moment as a fabricator.

Drop me an email as to what hull you need a rudder for. I have two Rinehart's in stock that may fit.

Phil,

You might ask Larry Ludwig if he can/has any interest in making a rudder for whatever hull you have. On his website he says he is planning to make rudders for the new hulls.

I have a couple sets of Reinhart's molds. Drop me an email with the particulars of your hull and I'll get back to you.

I have two of Matt's rudders/Rhinhart that he just made for us. I have a very limited knowlege in the EC12 class (check my posts for proof haha). His rudders look and fit fine for us, one hull is a Hickman 95 std the other is one of Matt's hulls, which by the way look great.
