[QUOTE="SV, post: 31173, member: 347"] I moved my TM to the bow of my 1456 Lowe and tried running it on our lake a few weeks ago. There was a moderate wind blowing, probably 10 mph and the boat was constantly switching ends. It was extremely annoying, so much so that I gave up fishing for the day and pulled the boat out of the water to work on the front deck. I don't have a motor to act as a rudder so I think I need to build something to work in it's place. How would ya'll design/build a fixed rudder for a jon boat? What size would you start with and how deep would you place the rudder? [/QUOTE]
