After my first boating season with my CD22, and several troubling docking maneuvers, (usually when I wasn't paying attention to the wind or currents) i found a cheap - low speed - steering solution. I put hydrofoil fins on top of my Permatrim. It improved my tracking in windy conditions, positive steering at slow speeds by giving me 3x more rudder space. Now, I can actually steer my CD22 while idling into my docking space.
They are made by http://UncleNormsMarineProduct.com The first picture in my album is of the fins mounted.
This is my 2nd season using these fins, no regrets here. |

Your link should end in products with a “s”, not product. _________________ Ron & Rose
