Is there such a thing as a generic rudder with mounting adaptors for different yaks? They all look the same to me, and I dont see why you couldnt adapt any of them for any other kayak.

Most are universal except a hobie. There may be others.

I love using my rudder on my hobie even when I'm not peddling!

I just built my own today. Granted, it's not for turning since it's horizontally fixed, but it should help me track straighter. It was about 10 bucks in materials.
