PRODUCT INFORMATION
Firm Grip, Precision Control – Ronstan Batlestick™ tiller extensions provide the highest level of control, for quick, decisive helm response in every situation. The Evalon® Grip is a firm non-slip grip material that does not absorb water. End knob for safety and positive hand positioning. Large grip diameter contrasts erganomically with mainsheet diameter to relieve fatigue. Ronstan’s unique fluted profile adds extra rigidity to the lightweight alloy section. Tubes have a black anodised finish for corrosion protection. Urethane Universal Joint provides smooth, uniform rotation in all directions and a quick, firm reponse to steering movements.
Dotan's conceptually brilliant rudder mechanism enables you to set the blade with a simple flick of the wrist.
Rudder Box: Constructed of Non-Corrosive
Incomparably strong and matchlessly durable, using non-corrosive, composite materials which make the Dotan rudder box more steadier against dynamic loadings than aluminum boxes.
Blade Shape: NACA Hydrodynamic Profile
The Dotan rudder blade's profile is designed on the basis of the NACA 0009 hydrodynamic profile (National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics). The Dotan rudder blade's shape minimizes wave and inductive resistance.
Encountering obstacles
When hitting underwater obstacles such as rocks, sandbanks, jellyfish, etc., the blade automatically kicks up.
Warranty
Your Dotan rudder system comes with a 3-year limited warranty for the rudder box and with a 2-year limited warranty for the blade. The rudder box for Optimists has a 10-year limited warranty.
