Sagitta's rudders are a bit small, especially if you have keels rather than daggerboards

So I recommend lengthening them by 150mm. Use the same rudder as shown on the plan template but then just extend the leading and trailing edges 150mm. No need to change the stock position or diameter

The channel for the daggerboard ropes, see in this sketch should be well rounded 40x20mm (eg 2in x 1in flat) so the rope uphaul doesn't jam
