    Is that the new Leopard 5692? That's a LOT of motor for a 36" boat! I usually stick with Speedmaster hardware from OSE. The quality is outstanding and the prices are more than fair.

    It`s actually 38 but the extra two inchs are on the tip so i don`t think it matters and i picked that motor to go 65+mph what you think ? i was thinking this http://www.offshoreelectrics.com/pro...prod=ose-80085 but sence he is out of stock i think ill have to go with this

    For my Aeromarine Sprint Cat (34"), it was recommended to buy a Speedmaster 3/16" XTD strut, round bottom. For the rudder, a Speedmaster .40 rudder with the proper setback to correspond to the XTD strut. I would imagine you don't want to go any smaller than that on a 38" cat and both of the items you linked are smaller.

    you could use one of these,for the rudder http://www.offshoreelectrics.com/pro...ckets+%26+More
    set back will depend on strut length, one of these should be okay (mono round bottom) http://www.offshoreelectrics.com/pro...d=ros-21-strut

    you could go the larger twin water pickup rudder and trim the length as well
