A rudder for a boat comprising a rudder blade (3) rotatable about a first axis (A), an actuator assembly (5) to move the rudder blade (3) and a coupling (4) interposed between the actuator assembly (5) and the rudder blade (3). In particular, the coupling (4) comprises a movable element (11) defining the axis (A), a first body (6) coupled to the movable element (11) to define a second axis (B) transverse, preferably perpendicular, to the first axis (A) and having a first connecting flange (9), and a second body (7) coupled to the movable element (11) and connected to the first body (6) by means of a second connecting flange (9); said connecting flanges (9) are configured so that an intersection (I) between the first and the second axis (A, B) lies within a thickness (S1) of an annular element (31) within which the bodies (6, 7) are housed and to which the flanges (9) are fixed or of the first and second connecting flange (9) coupled to each other.
