[Sonar] Water in Rudder question

[Mark Kochendorfer]

If I ever take my boat to have work done, I would certainly take it to 
Stosh.  However, doing the simpler repairs myself is part of the 
entertainment value of boat ownership for me.  Lucky for me there are 
lots of things to be fixed.

Did he seal the outside surfaces, or is there a plug of some sort down 
at the bottom of the tube?

Thanks for the information.
