Rudder or not?
I have been debating on trying a rudder on my newest kayak (X-13) and wanted opinions from those with them. I have always felt it far from a necessity, although paddling my Extreme in with a following wind and seas made it wander and cross winds can make for doubling up on the one side of paddle strokes. My apprehensions come from lines tangling when dealing with one line and having the other foul on all that stuff back there.
In wanting to paddle further and cover more area, I am looking at trying to be the most efficient I can be. So what are all the pros and cons for you?
