Hi Jerry,
Yakima makes great footpedals, but I have never heard of an entire rudder system from them. Typically you see the Yakima footpedals with a Feathercraft or similar rudder. The Feathercraft is an easy retrofit, especially if your boat already has the holes. Seda makes a retrofit for their boats, which is actually a near universal kit. www.sedakayak.com The SmartTrack system by Cascade Designs is also a retrofit which can be adapted to almost any kayak. Their best feature is the toepilot foot pedals which pivot instead of sliding back and forth, allowing for solid footbraces and rudder control. www.seallinegear.com/smarttrack.asp I'm sure there are many other systems avaliable, those are just the two I personally deal with on a regular basis. -Eric (bcm) wrote in message om... Can anyone tell me where I might be able to buy a rudder to put on an older kayak I was given. It has a single pin mounting hole. I had heard Yakima makes a light weight rudder, but I didn't see them on their web sight. Thanks, Jerry |

A couple of slots over from the one I store my kayak at is one where they have a Yakima rudder installed, so they do exist. I've never met the person though so I can't say what they think about it. |
