The current rudder system on the Wave and Getaway (EZ Loc system) is not set up for single rudder sailing. In most cases... on all cats, both rudders are advisable for best control. Mostly racers are using a single rudder (when at speed) and typically on the downwind leg. Some guys can pull one up when sailing upwind, but loss of control is more likely with just one rudder down.
