Review: Cable kit is minus tubeing,which is required? Not advised of this when purchasing! Had to obtain later. This is sure a well built item. Minimal instruction included, tho assy straightforward. Rudder tracks should have method for securing from outside,without need for vertical adjustment, which secures from behind. Rudder retract cord, should have a smoother route thru top of rudder securing pin. Cord will wear there. I will fit a fishing rod line guide there. All in all, great build/value. Stiil building so una to report on performance. As my kayak's a double, expect good results.

Review: Great system if only sent without confusing instructions and parts that fit together differently than the stated instructions; also, I have a WS Tsunami and the wrong metal bracket was send; hence, causing the system to get dislodged off the kayak on the first day, and requiring creative remodifications to fix. But when it is working, it is awesome. Just needs fine-tuning, more attention to details of parts and instructions, and better matching of parts to individual brands/models of kayaks.

Review: The kit is great. Installation was not too difficult after studying the instructions prior to ordering. I have a Mad River Canoe Synergy 14 (Sit on top, hybrid). My kit was missing a couple of small components (cotter pin, cleat, and the little ball that does on the end of the rudder cord), but AK shipped them out quickly...along with a free t-shirt. A couple things of note: -For a sit on top kayak you will need the "Vertical Adjustment Kit". I didn't see this mentioned anywhere prior to purchase. I found this out after receiving my kit...staring at the pieces...staring at the kayak...drinking a beer...then staring some more. I called them up and they explained it to me. -For a sit on top, you will need the rudder tubing kit. I found this out while doing preliminary research. The kit is very good, but would be GREAT if they included the rudder tubing. Why not include it if its an essential part? Would you buy a car without wheels? Also, if the Vertical Adjustment Kit is needed for Sit on top kayaks, why not publish that information? After installation, the kit works great. A simple flex of the toes operates the rudder in each direction. With the rudder being spring loaded, deployement is really effortless.
