: Thanks!

I've had great luck working with Dave and Ed at their North American branch (office is in Massachusetts). Great bunch of guys. Tell them I said "hi."

Order the complete footbrace kit and they'll make sure to include the three rails. They now also make a wider version of the surf ski footbrace for touring boats. It would have been perfect in the Wahoo.

The complete kit for the surf ski foot is around $175 plus SH&H.
The under hull rudders are about $65 each.
The stern mounted Smart Track Race rudder is about $125.
