Need suggestions for adjustable skeg
By:Robb
Date: 7/13/2000, 2:17 pm

Does anybody have any good ideas about retrofitting an adjustable/retractable skeg? I am thinking about using a lexan skeg in an okoume box, but I am open to other ideas. I would rather not have anything protruding above the deck. Any recommendations on hardware or websites? My boat is a modified North Bay XL (CLC S&G). Thanks.
