In Response To: S&G: Rudder size (Gaetan)

: I am presently building a CLC sport tandem kayak and I am wondering which
: rudder blade I should order. Since this kayak is only 22 inches wide,
: would a single kayak rudder blade be enough or a larger type(k2) be
: better?

You should call CLC and see what they say. We've had a KajakSport rudder on one of our tandems and used it all last summer everyday, and I've never had a finer rudder. Something to think about.
