Lost my rudder

Racing my newly acquired Daysailer 2 for the first time last week, I capsized and turtled. The rudder and tiller sank to the bottom of the lake and are not retrievable. I've been unable to find a replacement in the usual places. Any ideas where I might find one?
Thanks,
Tiller

I checked the link to DR because I just made a new tiller in my shop. I still don't know exactly how long it should be, but the illustration on the DR site shows the tiller next to the rudder assembly. I think I can guessitimate from there. I was glad to find that a few minutes in my shop yeilded a $59 part from surplus wood!
