Here is a low production boat from the 70's that used a retractable rudder. From personal experience it worked very well for a low tech solution. Would be nice to be able to sail in shoal areas. Randy

I will follow up with your email and post a reply here if things work out...than you again, Randy.

OK its a big favor but I'll put it out there. I recently purchased the mac that got smashed in the keys.

Glad everyone scared off the high bidder..I got second chance offer and just brought her home to palmetto from ft lauderdale. Neighboor has done this for 30+ years and says we'll spend less than a grand so for $7200 + $1000 I'll have a great boat that still has new boat smell and an engine warranty....
