    I have a 45' SIRIUS Spencer design (smaller version of ragtime) It has had appendage mods by previous owner which aren't good. I want to install twin drum rudders and am open to ideas re construction solutions, I have seen some posts re Eric Sponbergs but no detailed versions of design. My yacht is ply/epoxy and so materials must be compatible for bonding to hull.:?: Any design/photo links would be appreciated or just your ideas
