how would the seaducer 47 handle with bonzi's inline rudder setup

In my experiences with Seaducer boats, I have found that they are pretty sensitive to setup and props. I would strongly recommend using the Seaducer hardware and making sure you get a prop from Jerry himself or someone who really knows what the boat needs.

There is a review on the 47 here: www.modelgasboats.com/Magazine...ducer_Mono.html

Hy Guys.
Why is the Waterpick hole in the rudder on the left, so we go right?

Do not use anything but Seaducer hardware on Seaducer boats. Follow Jerry's instructions exactly as written and you'll have a fine running race boat.

Phil: I have often asked myself the same thing! Some manufacturers now are doing the hole on the right side of the blade.

Whipper: I agree 100%

The Hydrodynamics of WHAT and HOW the water reacts to the rudders wedge shape while cornering is somewhat hull style specific. But those dynamics involved are by no means an absolute

What I personally have found tho is on HYDRO's that pivot on a Turn Fin, the YAW or side crab the rear section of a hydro does while cornering, puts greater water pressure on the left side of blade ( viewed from rear of boat )than the right side.
Hulls that tend too travel more In Line while cornering compress the water on a rudder blades right side more than the left when cornering

I know confusing stuff

Hy Guys.
I Bulit a Seaducer Hydro.
With the Original Seaducer Hardware Kit. And a CC Full mod .Zeni:laugh:

Hey Phil, I've got the same setup. Pics of mine are in the gallery. You're gonna like it. Very competitive race boat!
