High performance rudder for the Balboa 27. True NACA 0012 airfoil blade, balanced rudder for reduced helm effort. The high lift to low drag foil helps your boat to weather and increases speed off the wind. Docking and tacking are easier and crisper, giving you more control of your boat during low-speed maneuvers. This rudder includes our super-duty stainless pintles, (third pintle included in price).

To ensure accurate pintle placement also fill out a Rudder Worksheet.

* Because this particular rudder is 2" thick requires a 2" wide butt end tiller for direct install. Or we can send you HDPE shim to use with your existing 1.5" wide tiller at no additional charge. We'll ship these shim automatically unless a new tiller is ordered with this rudder. *

Equip your new rudder with a new mahogany and white ash, laminated tiller. By ordering your tiller with your rudder, you will receive tiller brackets ($49), bolts ($3.75), and labor ($18) for free, which is a $70 value. This eight layered, laminated tiller comes ready-to-varnish with marine penetrating oil or choose to have your tiller varnished with premium UV resistant spar varnish.  You can view the different tiller styles by viewing our Tiller Worksheet. Don't forget the tiller cover made from Pacific Blue Sunbrella, to protect your new tiller from the elements.
