Sincere thanks for the suggestion......mmm Carbon very nice...it would stand out like a diamond on a sh*t house floor. ..Seriously my old boat is not worthy of carbon and a fixed rudder would tear the transom off as soon as it saw the shingle.

I want to try the Ent at racing for several reasons but mostly because my crew is not sure how hard hiking will effect her knees, hips and back....If all is well we will probably get a 200 for next year    So I don't want to spend loads but I do want to get rid of the wooden shovel thing at the back.

What shape is the blade? Could it be cut down to fit a firefly (22cm by 60cm in the water if I remember correctly)
