I have inherited a rttl launch.It has a single propshaft and also has twin rudders. I was wondering if this arrangement will steer properly. Thanks for any help.

It's not a common arrangement, but it's not rare either. Yes it will steer just fine, the only time you might notice a small difference is at very low speed, when a burst of throttle can kick the stern out with a rudder in the prop wash. I've made at least two models like that in decades past, without any problems.

Thank you for your help. That has helped me a lot. Its a boat my father started building in the early sixties but never finished it. Lots of work needed to finish it. Thanks again Brian
