Joe,
I did the same repair about ten years ago. I let the rudder dry out inside  
my home for several months and then filled and sealed the cracks with 
marine  bondo (yes, there really is such a thing) and then laid several layers of 
 fiberglass and resin over all of the edges. I sanded smooth, painted and 
put new  anti-fouling on and it's been good since.
My guess is that the rudder is constructed as two pieces and then glassed  
together. Stan might have another trick up his sleeve, but that's my  guess.
 
Rummy

Hey  John,
Thanks for the info.  There is a crack on the front edge about  4" long 
about halfway down, a crack on the back that runs about 1/3 of the  
rudder length up, and on the corners at the bottom I almost believe I  
can see some wood.  That's why I asked about construction.  I  don't know 
how long I need to let the thing set and dry before I try  sealing the 
cracks.  I'm going to start sanding and try to let the  dark, damp spots 
go away first.
I am not familiar with e 2000.  Is  that available from WM  also?
Thanks,
Joe
