Me again, sorry to keep bombarding with questions, but being new, there is a lot to learn javascript:insertsmilie('')

Does anyone use a ruddersafe? and can they be fitted to an enfield 130 leg? If so, where could we buy one please...our 32 is skittish to say the least lol when it comes to steering at low speed and I have read that these are very good

I have one of the fixed cast aluminium ones that enfield made for the 130 leg at work, I will have to get round to checking it over to make sure it's ok, let me know if you're interested.

Hi munsie53
I have a rudder safe on my 15hp outboard fitted to a Norman 23 low speed below 5 kph it is very effective but at higher speed the steer becomes heavy. I hope this helps

Just a thought, clean some paint off both rudder and outdrive so they get a good electrical contact together, it will mean your anode also protects the rudder.
