The Caprice was designed by Robert Tucker. Is this boat bilge or fin keel? We had a Mark IV bilge keeler; the rudder was fitted to a skeg and was relatively large and squareish in shape. If you have a skeg, the rudder was almost the same depth as the bilge keels and the top sloped at the same angle of the underside of the hull with about 1 1/2" clearance. Robert Tuckers son carries his designs - do a search under my posts and you will find his phone number/address in reply to another question about Tucker designs.
