Im on the east coast and I can not find rudders for my Sol Cat. Is there a match up of another brand? I would like to find a used set first just to take it out for a season to see how she holds up.

i have hobie 18 rudders on my sol cat and they work just fine. you can find them more easily than solcat rudders.

that's what I was thinking also. did you have to modify it at the connection point or did it go right on?
Thanks for the reply,
Josh

i would put nacra rudders on the solcat over hobie rudders. i have a nacra 18 square and like the rudders much more than the hobie rudders.
