TRIPLE-SUPPORT RUDDER SYSTEM™-- A RUDDER THAT'S
EASY TO MAINTAIN, AND EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO DAMAGE. |
| The rudder is the most vulnerable
appendage on any boat's hull. At Caliber, we take extra measures so that
our rudder assemblies are strong and well-protected: |
|
♦ |
The rudder's steel core is welded to a shaft
of solid stainless steel. |
|
♦ |
Our Triple-Support Rudder System shares the
rudder's load among three bearings--one more than on most other boats. |
|
♦ |
For ease of maintenance and protection from
corrosion, the upper rudder bearing, which supports most of the rudder's
load, is housed inside the boat. |
|
♦ |
Our structural skeg not only supports the
lower end of the rudder and shaft, but helps shield the entire assembly
from damage in a grounding. |
