Ken,
To see what I mean, please see my launching video from this past May
(http://youtu.be/lV2KBUMb6IY) — seems like only yesterday — I need to move
south.
Anyways, starting at about the 2:05 mark, you can see the depth of the
rudder as compared to the keel. They are very close.
All the best,

Ken,
Never measured the draft of the rudder on the Enterprise, but I would
say it’s very close to the keel depth of 4.92 feet. When the boat out of the
water and the keel is on blocks, the rudder is pretty close to ground.
I can measure it for you when the boat hauls in 2 weeks :-(
All the best,
Edd

That isn't actually true John. The draft of the rudder in those drawings is 5'
6". The draft of the CB version's keel is listed at 4' 11" so the CB version
has to use a shorter rudder. Perhaps Ed can tell us the draft of the rudder on
the Enterprise?
Here is a photo of the CB version:

Great comparison. More interesting - take a look at the rudder. In all cases
they have the shoal draft rudder which would work with the centerboard model.
This is the same thing we saw on our 51 of similar vintage. Apparently they
would change the keel but not alter the rudder. Rob Ball hand some interesting
thoughts on that when I spoke to him in the early 2000’s about redesigning the
rudder. Curious if that is just drawings or in fact held true in production.
