FAQs:
Q: Will this fit on a Perception Conduit 13ft?
A: Yes, this rudder is compatible with the Conduit 13.0.
Q: Will these fit perception joyride10?
A: No. The Joyride is technically not designed to accept a rudder system so we do not offer a rudder kit that will work for that model.
Q: The holes on the metal extrusion track do not line up with holes in my Carolina 14. Any thoughts on how to resolve this issue?
A: The footbrace mounting holes on "most" sit-inside Perception kayak models are drilled a standard distance apart so technically the holes in the metal tracks should line up. It's possible the holes in the metal tracks were drilled incorrectly. If the holes do not line up or are not close enough to make it work, please contact our Customer Service Department for assistance at: claims@kayaker.com
Q: Will this fit a Perception Triumph 13?
A: Yes. The Triumph should have a molded post hole on the stern. If so, this is the correct rudder kit.
