: I wonder can you mount this track on the underside of the deck so thateverything is out of the way instead of between your heels ? looks like a good idea do the pegs give you enough braceing strength ?I've made seveal kayaks with rudders using my home made foot brace steering
: system. built basically like my standard wooden foot braces, See Nick's
: book, I make the foot peddle portion rotate to control the rudder.

: You kinda have to use your imagination from the picture of the standard
: footbrace from my web site. the track runs along the keel, between your
: legs in the cockpit. your feet rest on the foot braces, like a gas-peddle.
: now imagine the peddles rotate when you step on the gas. I attach each
: steering cable from the rudder through a hole by the toe, pass it around
: the pivot rod then attatch it firmly to the front bulkhead. The foot
: braces may then be adjusted while you are in the boat with out changing
: the rudder settings.
