[quote=P.M.][quote=yurdle][quote]when you release the pull down line it has a tendancy to recleat itself after you let it go, so if the rudder doesn't pop up the whole way it gets stuck half way up. Then I end up draging the rudders in the sand when I beach. [/quote]
This happens to me as well. I don't have pivmatics, so I have to watch the rudders closely when coming in to shore. I've thought about doing away with the shock cord and using a second 'up' line that I can cleat, but haven't taken that jump yet. Maybe after another season.[/quote]
It's technique and everything working. If your bungees are strong, when you release the hold down, continue holding for the brief second it takes for the rudder to fully raise. So easy a caveman . . . [/quote]
