Capt. Patrick's rudders

The Anna E. splashed this morning, and is now back home in her slip. I put on a set of Capt. Pat's rudders this winter. My only regret is that I didn't get the rudders the first year I had the boat. Unbelievable difference at troll/idle speed as well as at cruising speed. I could actually steer the boat on one motor at 3 knots. A "must have" for a 31, especially if you slow troll for rock/stripers or whatever. Now my kid will be able to keep the boat straight while I set the lines....can't wait 'til next weekend. Maybe some catch and release this weekend.
