Hi,

I have been looking at all the photos I can locate of the rudders on different harryproas, but particularly sidecarry, aroha and blind date. I can't figure out how the kickup mechanism works.

With the boats that have a quadrant at the rudder, it would seem that the cable would either hold the rudder in place, or else rip things out of the rest of the boat.

If you use tillers, when the rudders are 20' apart, then doesn't the long (10+') tiller jump all around when the rudder kicks up?

Can someone point me to some photos that explain this better?

Thanks,
- Gardner
