Universal Rudder Adapter (K-1 & J-2 Motors)
$149.00PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Vibe Bixpy-Ready Gravity Rudder is the first rudder in the market specifically designed to accept a motor as an option. The bottom portion of the rudder unscrews in seconds to allow you to attach your J-2 Motor directly onto the rudder.
Theย Vibe Bixpy-Ready Gravity Rudder offers a molded 10mm stainless steel pin that offers easy installation and not only fits all Vibe kayaks but can replace most other manufacturer rudders in seconds! Itย also offers a robust double hinged, 90ยฐ Slide & Stow mechanism that gets the rudder completely out of the water in a heartbeat!
Theย Vibe Bixpy-Ready Gravity Rudder also features a gravity driven locking mechanism that allows the rudder to lock into place when motorized in forward or reverse. However, since the locking only occurs with gravity, the rudder easily โunlocksโ and pops up to protect your motor and rudder in shallow water. Steering your rudder can be done using your existing rudder steering system if you have one and if not, you can choose from a variety of options in ourย Steering Options.
