Anyone know where i can get a bow mount boat rudder for back of 12ft sun dolphin? I had one that i used for my old boat but lost it at six O wednesdayin the lake. I believe used to be a member or someone that used to make them. Any help or info appreciated. Not available anywhere i can find but got couple ideas how to make one…..thanks.

Pondking.com sells rudders. It likely would work with your sun dolphin. I dont see it on their web-site, but they use to sell them.

I’m not sure how long this example link will work, but transom mount minnkota brackets are available online. All you need from their is a piece of aluminum or even pvc to fashion a rudder for the bracket. The one I’m linking is about $25

I bought a bull nose rudder that clamped onto an extra trolling motor I had and placed  on the stern when I fished out of a Pro 120. Also had a bow mount. It was useful for launching and loading when leaving and arriving to shore. Worked well
