You might pas by a couple boatyards and look for a similar boat on the hard. Ask the owner if you can take some pics and sizes of the rudder.
Is yours completely lost and gone ?
Could you post any pictures of the damage ?
Regards

Worth trying the designer - Daniel Andrieu www.andrieudesign.comHe should be able to provide the drawings for the rudder. As Sailbleu suggests if you can post some photos that would help I note that Jeanneauparts have them listed at around 3000 euros so a rebuild would be the most economic route.... Malcolm |

No damaged rudder. But I think this is different from my rudder! This is SO 33 - 1991. It is possible that after some years the blade has been modified by Jeanneau? I think that it is possible.  |

I am surprised that the rudder would of changed between the 1991 and 1993 models - there was a model change to the 33.1 around 1994 which would be when any rudder modification may have been - maybe you have an early 33.1?
I would think the depth of the rudder is something that would be similar if both models have the same draft, so you still should be able to use the other boat as a guide - but dimensions from the designer would be best
However looks like there is still a substantive section left so you should be able to make a good repair -
Obviously need to check for any internal damage as well
