Oh another ?
Are there any good prop shops around/near the central valley? I would like to have a few props checked for pitch, cupping, and then polished too!!!
Thanks again....
Ok, here we go... These are off my 80 Sanger Mini Day Cruiser... I am pretty sure that I will need both... the fin is really bad and the rudder is pitted pretty good too. I would like to repair and reinstall, but I have precious cargo that I carry in the boat, so I am thinking new would be better. The rudder has a shaft that is about 15/16" and the leading edge measures 11 3/4" while the trailing edge is about 8 1/2". The shaft is about 12" in length. On the trailing edge there is "R-201" stamped on the edge.
The fin, as you can see does not mount "flat" it has a slight angle to it as it mounts from the bottom. The overall length is 13 1/2" by approx 3". the fin itself is about 5 1/2" at the tip and about 11" in length. Is has "cruiser" stamped on it as well.
Phew...no that I spouted all that out... Can anyone point me in the right direction? I was also wondering if the Schiada style fin would work? I have seen it is a post somewhere on here.
Any and all help is GREATLY appreciated!
Thanks,
Bill

Bergeron has done a couple rudders for some of our customers that are similar in shape to that one, check with glenwood for the fins.
You can try my pops shop ACE Marine in Santa Rosa for your props, try CP, Bergeron, Glenwood for the fin and rudder. Good Luck!
Cool!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyone have any numbers for these places or should I just google them?
Thanks again!

You might want to check out the strut also. If the other underwater gear is in bad shape, the strut maybe too. I believe Barber Welding does struts and rudders also, not sure of the phone number.
ok, another question for those that know.
Looking at my rudder, would it be good to make any changes to it? I just talked to Kel at Barber Welding and he said to send everything and they could copy it or make any changes to it....What changes would one make to a rudder like this, seeing as it is on a 20 foot cruiser with a big block chevy?
Thanks
Barber welding does do struts. I'm having a stainless drop thru built, should be done in a week or two. (562)928-2570
It depends on what you want to do with the boat.
You could always change the angle, but then you are opening up a whole new can of worms. Personally, I would just put the same stuff back on it.
