Hi All
I am looking for a replacement rudder for my Proboat shockwave 26 (broken mine today), as per the link below, However I cannot find anywhere in the world that has any available as it is a discontinued item
http://www.revmod.co.uk/ProBoat-Shockwave-26-EP-Rudder-Assembly-PRB2104.html (http://www.revmod.co.uk/ProBoat-Shockwave-26-EP-Rudder-Assembly-PRB2104.html)
Does anyone know anywhere that has one, or do I need to alter the rudder setup to something newer? if so what?
many thanks
Steve

if you have just broke the rudder and not the whole assembly you could possibly just replace it with a brass one

Hi Frank
Yes it is just the rudder, A brass one sounds like a good idea, do you know of an alternative brass one? ie a link to one? I cant find any that would fit the current setup.
Thanks

Hi Steve.
would need to know what the I/D of the tiller arm is.

Does this one from the Impulse 26 look the same? From the listing it looks like they might be interchangable.

Hi Brian
If you take a look at the below link you can see what the rudder looks like, very different..

Hi All
I took some pictures of the broken rudder, the diameter of the shaft is about 6mm
