Any thoughts on what hardware to use. Mainly, strut & rudder for twin prop set-up.

I am feeling better, I just got a full nights sleep. I will be working the weekend to get caught up.
Thanks for your patience.
I want to build it scale that might be wrong for a model on the shafts. I diffidently want to build the rudder and bracket to look real.

Doc this view is good to reference too. Thanks for your help.

I like the look of this rudder but it is a little small.

I've got one of these it looks like it would be perfect, I think if you mount it low on the transom like the real ones it will be fine. Besides your just using the rudder to guide it strait and low speed turns, this boat is not designed to turn like a oval course boat.

And maybe these cut down to 40 or 50 mm. http://www.offshoreelectrics.com/pro...prod=ose-80105

Or these, the 17th and 18th items on this page. http://kintecracing.com/Hardware.html and another cool rudder is the 34th item with a CF blade on it.

On the strut I will make a under the boat mount. I will start with adjustable, till I find the best setup. Remember I have a full machine shop.

Duh, that's right I forgot. Sorry Randy. anyway the rudder with the CF blade is pretty cool and the shape is pretty correct for a few of them I've seen
