Hey guys,
I've been looking into a tandem Kayak for a while now and with the OEX/Malibu parking lot sale I was considering one of their Pro2 Tandem F&D. Only issue I'm having is I can't seem to find anything about if it's possible to rig one with a rudder? I've google searched to the point that my fingers are tired but can't seen to find anything for that model. It looks like several other Malibu models have the ability to be configured with the rudder but not the Tandem. Am I missing something?

I currently have a Hobie Outback and love the rudder on it!

Someone else can answer on whether you can fit a rudder to it, but why do you think you need one on a paddle yak?

Paddle or Peddle I just like having the rudder to keep me pointed in the right direction. Even when tied off to the kelp I use my ruder to keep me pointed in a particular direction in relation to the current/wind.

The Pro 2 Tandem does not accommodate a rudder as it has heal stops instead of foot pegs/tracks
