Installing a SmartTrack Rudder on a Hurricane Kayak

A customer emailed us to get rudder installation assistance for a kayak not originally built to accept one. Since pictures speak louder than words, we put Jon Stewart to work behind the camera. Here’s the skivvy.

Part I – Mounting the rudder ready end cap

Part II – Installing the cable tubing and sliding foot rails

Part III – Installing the cable and rudder

Part IV – Attaching the cable to the footrails and installing the deployment line

So that’s the story! If you have any questions, just ask for Jon.

    Thanks for taking the time to make these videos! It’s kinda cool to see the inside of the factory too. Any chance you’ll make a “How it’s Made” video of the thermoforming process and the birth of a Hurricane Kayak?
