I think Aaron did it a couple of years ago with kickup rudders and said it was "interesting" but that he'd not do it again !

How about adding the ECPR ? (but as discussed before, some like the short course and some the long). [/quote]

I've done the last 3 Sheppey races and said that after every one of them.
It's a great race and I reckon fixed rudders is not a problem as long as you study the course map and make a note of the shallow points. Cats start last and end up sailing in the highest water. Basically if you sail the middle of the river theres no problem. The bridge is where most damage occurs so I would recommend a shore crew to help you through.
