: Btw, neither Mirage nor Epic came up with that idea. Actually have no idea
: who came up with it first, but there was a Dagger years back with the same
: rudder.

: Bill H.
Well, then here's a question: Is there a possibility to integrate an internal rudder into a SOF boat?
There is this company that makes this 'bendable' SOF foldable, which increases rocker at will. If one were a little less 'ambitious' one could take the last three inches of the boat and make them wiggle, no?
