Your expertise on holding expenses to a minimum would be appreciated.

All of those boats have what you need. You will have to get the Wave tiller arm tubes only, and cut a x-bar to fit the narrower boat.

If you are lucky you might find a beater 18 for less than a grand. Part it out and you should get free rudders for your Wave.
