Any feed back on the option of installing this on an older boat? I might buy an older CD Nomad / Extreme and the pedals look kind of beat from the pictures. I may leave the rudder that is there or add Smart Track. How is the control on these pedals with the toe control? Can you use it effectively with your toes? I read a few varied reviews when I search the net.

I guess if the rudder is decent I'll leave the stock CD rudder that is there. I'll just use it in real rough and windy conditions anyway.


thanks

I have a Seward boat with the toe control rudder and a Dagger that the whole peddal slides for rudder control and I find the toe control rudder system a more solid set up for braceing and for times when I put a lot of presure on the pedals. One of my some day projects is to put toe control pedals on the Dagger, It is worth the expense and work.
