Recently saw an article by Paul Caffy wherein he mentioned a temporary skeg attached to a sleeve which was slid over the stern and could be rotated to the side when starting out. I find my Guillemot weathercocks in the extreme, which is probably more my paddling technique that the kayak. Nonetheless I would rather not retrofit a permanent skeg as I anticipate my paddling technique will improve with time. Being committed to a rather lengthy trip on the open waters of Georgian Bay, I'm going to need some help in tracking.

Has anyone heard of such a skeg mount and if so are there any drawings or writeups available ?
