Posts: 10 Norway | At the end of the season, we lost a rudder in a sudden thunderstorm out on the water. It was all rather dramatic, but we made it. The previous day, we had discussed to modify the locking pin, as we saw they were kind of unsecure.
However, we now need a new rudder but can not find the mail to stealth marine. Also their web page seems to be down. Are they gone bust? How can I get a new rudder?

Posts: 893 | Thanks Pepin, so there's some agreement that the foils migh be a liability in the light stuff? I love the rock solid stability of this boat when it's gnarly, but it doesn't seem quite as slick thru the water as the HT or the A, and I wonder if it's related to the foils.
Dave Ah no, most debate is just that, bar talk, in regard to T foils. Certainly on the water its pretty evens even at low wind levels. As to feeling different to the HT and A, the Stealth is a flat wide bottomed boat that slams on anything over a mill pond. Thats the way it is and way it is designed. The older A's are much more hull in the water due to less bounancy and certainly feel much more refined. Think of a hotrod compared to a refined touring car, both seem to get there at the same time but in a very different way. | | | Re: Lost T-foil rudder, need new from Stealthmarine

Is it possible to buy one of your rudders? The boat is from 2004, but I do not remember wether it was the left or right one, and the boat is 500km from here. Are there differences on the rudders?

If is ISP has gone pop; I'd expect he may not have access to email; Try calling him. Yes; I could seel you one; but I'd prefer to keep them. Try calling him. If you do not have the number; send me a PM and I'll send it to you.
