88 viewsPositioning prior to Sikkaflex and bolting together. These plates were made by a stainless steel fabricator in Volos Greece. He took the sketches and had the rudder in his workshop to make sure it all worked out OK. He also drilled the rudder for the new plates. Cost of S/S work in total €120. Pretty good value I think.Feb 11, 2015
