removing rudder

[cbs]

I have just stripped the bottom of my commander and done some blister work as well, i want to take off the rudder and refinish it , having not done this before can any advise on the removal procedure?

Put the tiller hard over to one side and you should see the screws that holds the rudder to the shaft. Remove with care the upper section and the rudder should lift right off.

The procedure is outlined in the manual.   For more discussion, search on rudder.
