Through the years many ocean rowing boats have had failures in their steering system with rudders snapping in half or with fixings breaking. Some boats have been able to overcome this by strapping oars to the stern or using panels of the boat to create a makeshift rudder, for others it has caused the crew to call a halt to their row. Often the problems are caused by the rudder not being correctly profiled, which, as it passes through the sea generates lots of friction, in turn breaking the pintles which hold it onto the boat. We don’t want this to be you!<\/p>\n
