Started the fin repair today.
Used the Dremel to sand down the broken fin stump and rout out a new groove down about 8mm into the fin can and old fin stub. Drilled lots of shallow holes for "epoxy rivets" when new fin is made and fixed in place.
Made up some new fin sheet material - 3mm plywood with 3 layers of 135g/sq.m F/Glass cloth on each side. Vacuum bagged it with the food saver same as last time and will let it cure for a week before cutting the replacement fin from it.
