Passport Sailing Rudder and Turbo Fins Can the Passport be updated with a sailing rudder and turbo fins? If so, which part numbers will I need. Thanks. |

No large rudder is available. Turbo fins would be for the GT drive. https://www.hobie.com/parts-and-accesso ... p=0&is_v=1 |

Novice here so please excuse the question, but what purpose would a sailing rudder serve on the Passport? I just picked up a new Passport and the keel and bottom are completely different than my Rev13. I saw a difference immediately when I change to a sailing rudder on my Rev however the shape of the Passport does not appear that a sailing rudder would make much of a difference. Just curious. |

Maybe better handling under sail. More control under load. |

My thinking was that the larger rudder would be useful when sailing. |
