I experienced a complete loss of rudder control while sailing in moderate winds today. I looked back over my shoulder and discovered that I had picked up a large clump of seagrass on the rudder. Recycled rudder up and down again to dislodge - and life returned to normal. I only mention this as there have been numerous issues reported with rudder control and this might be a possible cause of at least *some* of those. |

Good to hear your steering issue was an easy fix. |

Yeah, I've experienced that as well. The other TI steering issues feel similar but don't go away after the rudder has been cycled up and down several times. |

Messes with your lures too. I have gotten in the habit of pulling up and checking both from time to time. |
