[Paddlewise] picture perfect rudder

I use the  rudder on my sealion :





A., for taking pictures. The rudder keeps the boat pointed in one direction
while I play photographer. Nothing more frustrating then to have the boat
turning while ftrying to focus.


B.for watching wildlife, keeping my upper body still has allowed me a lot of
viewing time of bears, otters and birds. Whereas the flash of a correcting
paddle stroke sometimes will send them ducking for cover.


C. in all day long cross winds


D. for keeping my nose pointed into the wind while resting (so as not to loose
too much ground)
