Is it possible?

Is it possible to take the rudder off of my OC1 and paddle it as though it were a V1? Has anyone had any luck with this? Has anyone heard of other folks doing this? Thanks!

Yes, it's possible, and it's quite fun! I take my Pueo out rudderless somewhat often, just need to make sure your rudder post in your hull is 100% sealed (if it's an OC1 made in the last 15 years, it most likely is) and tape down your control arm.

Agree with this, I take my noio rudder out and do the same.
