Hello, I'm the proud new owner of a Morgan 24. She is missing the rudder from the hull down. I looked http://members.cox.net/m24site/ over and it has the details for the new SS tube I need but I'm just not sure on the dimensions of the rudder it self. If someone has an M-24/25 they are parting out I would be interested in the rudder among other things but if not can someone direct me to a diagram or specifications of the Rudder it self? Thanks so much.

M-24 Rudder
Regarding the M-24 rudder; I too own an M-24 (Aimless Journey) that is out of the water. If you need specs on the rudder I could trace mine and send you the pattern and sone pics. MCMACDUCK@AOL.Com

M24 Rudder drawings for website
Thom, If you draw up specs for the M24 Rudder, send me a copy and I will post it on my Morgan 24 website. I suppose I could draw on myself if you get delayed on doing it. Let me know if you run into a problem getting the drawing done for "Foreverunstopable"

Original Molds
Where are the original molds? Apparently the molds were dumped into Tamp Bay when Morgan closed. This is what Robert Walker who worked at Morgan says. Rober Walker opened a company which now manufactors Rudders, and they offered to do a new mold and rudder for me for $2500. Which i don't think i can afford, but they do have molds for these morgan rudders if anyone is interested: Morgan 30 Morgan 30/2 Morgan 34 Morgan 383/384 Morgan 41 Morgan 44 Morgan 45 I forget the name of the company, but they can be reached at: 352-529-1104. I still don't have a rudder, and an employee from the company that once was Morgan says that the shape of the rudder is very important for the movement through water. An inaccurate rudder could be a problem. Does anyone in the Sarasota Area have a rudder that is off the boat that I could make a mold of. I have access to a professional team of fiberglass technicians that could do the work with no harm to your rudder. let me know: z e r t _ I I @ y a h o o . c o m (subtract spaces)

M-24 Rudder Patterns
Zertgold I still have a copy of the patterns that I sent to FOREVERUNSTOPABLE that are full scale tracings from my rudder, both side profile and top end cross section. Seems like it would be easy to duplicate the rudder from them. If you would like a copy, e-mail me at mcmacduck@aol.com. TM
