I just put in one hour tonight. I sanded the rudder head and blade and then put a coat of epoxy on the blade. It's all coming along nicely; however, I'm not quite sure I like the looks of the tapered blade which is made from meranti ply. The dark lines look burned. I may wind up painting the blade and leaving the head, which is okoume, bright. We'll see.
The blade is coated on both sides. It's sitting on a board with nails in it. It will leave small impressions in the epoxy on the underside, but they'll sand out.
