QUESTION: What is the Triple-Support Rudder System™?
ANSWER: It is a method of attaching the rudder to the hull that involves spreading the loads to three key points. So strong, that any two could support the rudder in an emergency. The lower support, the rudder shoe, is located well above the bottom of the keel for even more added protection in case of a accidental grounding.
