I have a single foot long rudder pin and wish to replace it with two shorter ones.  Will these replacements work?  Guessing its 1/2 inch diameter.

What does anyone use to clean Hydrilla from keel? Our lake is suffering severe bout of this tenacious weed. Pole? Rope?

This just popped into my Facebook marketplace feed. I’m not certain it will fit an Ultimate 20 but it looks like very similar and could fit.

This is not my listing, just sharing with the group.

The "summer season" on San Francisco Bay is coming this September and October.  That usually means warmer sunny days and milder breezes compared to the fog driven June-August period.  There are three events for U20s that will be held this Fall that you should add to your calendar:

September 19-21:  Ultimate 20 Pacific Coast Championship in conjunction with the Fall One Design regatta.  The NOR and registration are currently open at https://www.regattanetwork.com/event/29814#_home.  For the U20s the event starts on Friday with a distance race and then windward/leeward mark races on Saturday and Sunday.  These races will occur on the Bay near the RYC in the area between Brooks Island and Southampton Shoals.  On shore events include dinner on Saturday night (included in registration) and regular meal service on Friday and Sunday evenings at the Club.  We will also have our regular post race briefings on the dock.

October 4:  Totally Dinghy.   Yes, the U20 is classified as a dinghy in this event along with the Wabbit.  This is one day of racing on the Bay with post race snacks and beer.   We expect to have a one design start for this event.   

October 25-26: Great Pumpkin Regatta.   The end of the season blow out and party at RYC featuring windward leeward racing on Saturday and the round the islands race on Sunday.  There will be three racing venues with the U20s likely on the Southampton course.   This regatta draws in a lot of boats and there is a live dance band, great food, and no host bar on Saturday evening.  Bring your costumes!  Post race briefing on Saturday with beer on tap.  The Sunday race is your choice in direction around Angel and Alcatraz Islands.

Special storage.  Out of town U20 boats are being offered mast up storage for the three regattas in our new West Lot small boat yard for $180.  The lot has new electric carts to tow boats to the hoists.  Water and electric utilities are available.  Please contact Mike Josselyn if you would like to take advantage of this opportunity.  Of course, you are free to use your boat anytime during that period....not just the racing events.

Where are you located? I have a spare standard rudder as I used my kick-up. It has very minor damage on one edge and nothing like yours!
