: Thanks for all of the ideas about skegs. This is the shape I came up with. I
: cut it out of styrofoam and glued it on. I just got back from the pond
: after trying it out. It is perfect. The boat tracks like an arrow and when
: I am turning and I stop paddling it immediately tracks straight out of the
: turn. Now I just have to turn it into wood.

: Thanks,

John,
You might want to take a little off of your skeg and see if it still performs.
Take off 1/4" at a time, I ended up with 3/4" and it works great. Would lower your draft and lessen the chance of damaging it.
