[QUOTE="RiverBottomOutdoors, post: 385371, member: 3912"] I don't think a rudder will help. Wind will still push the bow of the boat around because you are going too slow to create sufficient forces for the rudder to overcome the wind. If you're going .5 mph and the wind is blowing 5mph...the wind will win every time.. A keel helps a boat track in the wind. [/QUOTE]
