    Not really sure how much top end you will lose but I can tell you from experience slow speed handling is greatly improved with a rudder.

    Craig with the Hallet, BBC made a rudder out of a plate of 1/4" aluminum, it hangs off his diverter. It's knife edged, and that boat corners like a Subaru WRX, plus it does give you the ability to steer under no power. I'm fabricating up a small stainless rudder and skeg system cuz my Hondo is all over the place when I'm on it hard. It's running better and better everytime I go out! You can ride in the Hallet and form your own opinion on Labor Day. Matt...
