It's simple, like most rudders. If you hit it hard enough, it comes off.....

(Note to self. Get out more...)

Vince, I had some hinges made by Martin G cut bye his router out of circuit board material.
5 pieces put together , 3and2 with holes drilled in for fixing and the hinge hole which will take a 2mm bar , threaded up from the bottom, I have to fix a stop to stop bar from dropping out. ( normally fed in from the top so gravity stops it falling out see pics
