: I finally found this image.
: I got it long long ago & I can't remember where from.

: the great thing about this skeg is it's hook like shaft.

: with this kind of design there aren't any maintenance problems.

: the actual shape of a skeg doesn't really matter.
: I already built a skeg with this hook type shaft & it's very easy to
: build.
: it is very firm yet very easy to remove.

: I didn't installed it on the boat yet.

: another important thing is to make the wing of 4mm plywood & NOT cover
: it with glass, so when we hit the bottom the wing will break,
: & not the housing !

That was/is my first drawing of the skeg I installed in my 17 and 19 foot Guillemots. The crosshatch area's depics different materials or voids in solids. Check the pics taken during construction to get a better idea of the actual constuction.
