I need to rechrome my sanger pickle inboard rudder, very rusty. Anyone know of a plater near Sac. Ca and what is a guess on the cost. Thanks.

Just throw a little Mexi-chrome on it. If it needs to be repaired, nothing a quick paint job can't fix. :D

Jordy as a new Schiada owner you're scaring me a little.

If you decide to get your rudder re-chromed, make sure the plater you choose is familiar with the process needed to avoid hydrogen embrittlement as this can cause cracking problems. If you need more info on this or you would like the proper procedure you can email me at: sked@jerseyspeedskiffs.com

My rudder is all pitted and it looks like there is a small crack up near the top. Can anyone point me in the right direction to have it checked or to buy a new rudder? Thanks for the help

If you see a crack it's time for a new one, "Schiada96" makes some good stuff, you might want to talk to him!..:cool: :cool:

Do not chrome the rutter it will certainly peel off just a matter of time. Like the fellas said you will not be able to race it either.
