Thanks for the reply. I did a little research and it looks like the rudder is hollow with the exception of a wood block at the top of the rudder. I called West System Epoxy this morning. I'll need to use a Dremel tool and grind out a channel where the crack is and fill with epoxy.
Thanks a lot.

The trouble with rudders is that you need to thoroughly dry them out and that is the biggest challenge. With the season approaching quick I would wait till the end of the season. Depending on how you choose to dry it, it may take quite a bit of time. Remember, most boats have some amount of wellness in the rudder. I paid a hefty price for someone to rebuild my rudder. He took a bunch of pictures showing the whole process.
