Rudder Mount

This mount is for attaching pin style rudders while leaving as little alteration to your wooden kayak as possible. Six wood screws hold the bracket in place.

This mount is for kayaks with a vertical stern and a flat deck at the aft tip. This includes all Chesapeakes (except for the Sport Tandem), and the West River. Can be used with our Feathercraft and Smart Track "Pin" rudder systems.

You can bend the stainless steel tangs on the mount to accommodate different stern shapes to a degree.  Use this drawing to check for a good fit if you don't have a stock Chesapeake or West River kayak:
