I primed the few remaining parts and began the Rudder assembly. Pictured below is the Horn Brace and several of the Rudder Stiffeners after they were primed with Akzo. Since there was only a small number of pieces to prime, I used the Preval Spray System again. It's very easy to use, quick, and cleans up quickly.
This is the middle reinforcement plate clecoed to the Spar.
Below you can see the upper reinforcement plate and the Counterbalance Rib clecoed to the Spar.
At the bottom of the assembly is the lower reinforcement plate (on the opposite side of the Spar), the Shim, the Bottom Rib, and the Rudder Horn.
Here is a portion of the Rudder skeleton (minus the Top Rib and Stiffeners) all clecoed together and ready for riveting.
