Jeff,

That is the answer of a "LIAR!" Pure and Simple.

A Cape Cod Cat has a Big Barn door rudder BUT If Nellen got the Rudder
of an Atlantic City Cat out of the water; That Cat was CAPSIZED!!!

The Atlantic Cat has an Internal Rudder out the bottom of the boat! So
does the "Freedom" As does most Catboats of modern design.

There was a very simple reason for the Darn Door Rudder, If Nellen had
any "Salt" at all, the reason should be obvious.
