I have a 91 Mystere 5.0. The rudders are intact and look to be in good shape except they are roughed up along the bottom from hitting ground/beaching etc. They appear to be constructed of two halves (plastic I think) bound together at the seam with adhesive and hollow inside. One already has what appears to be an old epoxy repair in this area. They both get some water leakage into the center cavity when I sail. One will drain out when I leave it standing up but the other does not. I want to repair the bottoms and seal the seams to keep the water out. What is the proper way to repair these plastic rudders, with expoxy, other? Do I need to do anything special since they've already had water leaking into them? Any ideas would be appreciated.
