We have had the rudder completed by cutting off and straightening up the tip,
it has been nicely welded back together and is straight as a die.
The new rudder cup and plate have been made up and welded on...
And it has all been given a nice covering over with bitumen.
The rear end looks lovely jubbly.
Whilst the worst of the grinding down to steel is taking place (the next job) we are relocating to a luxury cottage so anticipate more news about the work in a week or so.
