About this work
Model of a rudder with a square rudder head. The long head projects slightly forward, rounded at the front and divided into three parts: the lower part has a hole for the rudder pin, the middle part is round to fit into a watertight closure and the upper part has a square back again and a hole in the width. Three rudder hooks, a gudgeon band and a hook and eye on the click. The rudder blade is thickened in three places.
