Greetings,
Mr. mb. "...new rudder made to be able to carry a vertical load of a considerable portion of the weight of the boat." I don't think so unless when one chocks the boat, a support is placed under the new skeg/shoe portion or one hits something in which case the OP is probably screwed anyway. Otherwise, the rudder is still just hanging there, albeit with a post going into the end of the new skeg.
