In Response To: Re: Other: Night Heron tracking (Mike Bielski)

I checked out Don Goss's permanent skeg comments. Thanks. When I installed my Kajak Sport skeg, I put it slightly forward so it would be easy to reach from the rear hatch. The NH really tracks nice when the skeg is engaged properly. As Matt said, it can be a little "nervous" especially in some conditions with the skeg up.
