Malcolm:
I saw your post last week and was hoping that you'd respond after your rudder installation / rudder TEST was complete. Glad to hear the rudder improved your tracking. I've decided to add a rudder after all the contemplation. I had a hard time just wanting to add deck lines (since mostly day paddling is our purpose) so you can imagine how hard it is to convince me to add a rudder!!!

The Seal Line looks quite efficient I must say. Even though I could afford an arm and a leg for the Seal Line rudder, I may elect to make my own to keep the "Wood Look". Thanks for the confirmation of my decision. Summer's winding down here in Michigan.....Hope the Carribean isn't too "BLUE" for you.
