Rudder 25 Blade 7

The Dotan® Kick-Up Rudder 25 Blade 7 is an outboard rudder system for sailboats and dinghies between 4 and 6 meters (14–20 ft). With a blade immersion of 845 mm — the deepest in the Rudder 25 range — it delivers maximum steering authority in open water, strong winds, and demanding sailing conditions.

Key Advantages

• Maximum blade immersion — 845 mm keeps more blade in the water, providing superior steering response and stability compared to Blade 1 (640mm) and Blade 2 (688mm).
• Automatic obstacle protection — On contact with rocks or shoals, the mechanism raises the blade instantly, preventing damage.
• Easy beach and dock launches — Lower the blade when ready, raise it when not — no tools required.
• Universal fit — Adjustable guide rail, secured with 4 screws. Compatible with a wide range of stern configurations.
• Choice of fittings — Ø8 mm or Ø10 mm hole or pintle fittings.
