I've not rebuilt a rudder - but I've seen on one youtube.....
Not sure if you're familiar with Sail Life channel - Mads is
rebuilding a boat and does a mold of his existing rudder before.
He makes it look manageable.

Thanks everyone,
I've looked into both Foss Foam and Competition
Composites. Both options are landing well into the $5000
cdn range (including freight) which is way beyond my
budget. Foss Foam doesn't have a C&C44 Rudder mold
but can try to "match" something similar which scares me
a little and it's roughliey $1200 US to get it to
Canada. Competition has a very expensive high-tech
process using CAD software and a milling machine which
I'm sure is standard for any Americas Cup contender but
drives the price as expected.
Has anyone tried to re-build their own rudder? - I've
been told carving 15lb density rigid foam and
encapuslating is the way to go - like this:

I
would suggest Competition Composites in Ontario excellent
workmanship,Canadian $$$$

price is dramatically reduced if they have an existing mold to
work with.
