Probably a tough ask. Suspect you will have to reverse engineer the whole rudder - so stock (shaft) and rudder. If builder Mike Barrett is still around he could assist. The Mike Barrett Yachts factory became the premises of Buizen Yachts but they closed in 2015. These companies might be able to assist;
