Smart Track Rudder systems are known for their rudder that stands vertically. This is common option on many newer types of sea kayaks both manufactured overseas (Tiderace, Epic - 18X sea kayak, V5 & V7 PE as an add-on) and in Australia (Audax, Nadgee post-2019).

They can also be retrofitted to kayaks with the same style of pin or, if there is a vertical stern area, a rear mounting bracket.

Smart Track rudder housings come with the required fixings, pin or bracket, pull cords in a kit. There is a choice of Standard Foil Blade (short, single of tandem) which is ordered separately. Most of the housings (except Flow) are metal and the Standard Foil Blades are plastic.

Many of the pin/mounting options are stocked, but not every combination of pin and housing is created.

X = Combination is available
Stocked = normally in stock

The tiller is the plate between the pin and the blade - being extended allows a greater distance of the rudder off the rear of the kayak.
