Looking at the plans , the rudders are shown 'beefed up' by 6mm ply either side near the top. Im not sure how far the reinforcement extends . Does it actually go under the blocks at the top end ? presumably it is faired off at its lower extremity but how far down does it reach :?:

Yes, the 6mm goes on before the 19mm plywood blocks. As you can see from the photo, the 6mm on my rudder goes almost to the bottom of the top hull side.
