Two hydro turn fins?
Hello Everyone
The question is in the thread subject. Will two hydro turn fins create more stability? (one on each sponson) Or would they be making a lot more resistance in the water?

Just more drag...I wish I didn't even have to use one. I ran my rigger one time without a fin and it moved. You would be suprised how much a turn fin slows a boat down but without it the boat just doesn't turn.

If you want a hydro to turn both ways that would most likey be the only way. Your other option would be to get a tunnel hull or Cat if you want to go both ways. Hydro's are really only meant to turn well in one direction.
