skeg on a pageant

[pikeyrm]

was toying with the idea of adapting some sort of bracket/ skeg for the rudder on my pageant, just wondered if anyone has done this before or even contimplated doing it.

Hi, it is a frequent modification on early MkII Corribees - production started with a spade, but Newbridge switched to a skeg later. There is web site with details somewhere, but I can't find it now. Didn't bother doing mine, but I did drill the shaft to bolt the tiller stock metal thingy on - prevents the rudder dropping out. IIRC, this can be a problem with Centaurs and pageants to, so worth ckecking. A Westerly expert will be along to shortly to tell you I am talking rollocks.

I've got a Pageant - why would you want a skeg ? Just curious...
