ABSTRACT:
A rudder control system for a boat rudder comprises a rudder control line extending from the tiller to guide spools displaced from the center line of the hull. The ends of the control line are joined by a resilient section which may take the form of a coil spring or resilient cord. Stop means affixed to the control line and the boat hull resiliently return the rudder to the center position. Adjustment of the tension in the cord provides for resistance to turning movement of the rudder.
