Subject: Rudder failure due to water ingress?
Info: (7867 views) Posted: Thursday 2-25-21 02:42:43 PM
Hi,

Has anybody ever suffered a rudder failure while underway due to water ingress between the post/structure and the rudder fiberglass?

What did it feel like? Was it a slow 'hey something is wrong let's get the sails down' kind of thing or was it a sudden, catastrophic 'oh shit I can't steer' moment?

thanks
