Epic Kayaks Rudder Hatch Cover. We offer three different rudder hatch covers that fit all of our craft, across all generations, being:
• v5/v7 - plastic rotomoulded skis • composite - white - all white composite surfskis (v5-v14) • elite - black - all elite skis.
The rudder hatch cover is sent out inclusive of the surrounding part in case you need to replace the housing as well as the cap. In most instances, the housing won't need to be replaced!

*Please note that we no longer import the Gen 2 system (with metal sliders) and we recommend an upgrade to this Gen 3 system if you previously had the metal sliders. The new system avoids the corrosion of the metal sliders with the new and improved plastic sliders. The Gen 3 rails also offer smaller increment holes which allow for more options for your leg length.
*Please note the rudder line, rudder line adjuster, and rails are sold separately.
The Gen 3 Footboard Assembly clips into these Gen 3 Rails. If you are upgrading from the Gen 2 metal footboard system then you require these rails with the Gen 3 Footboard Assembly. These rails have closer increment holes which provide the paddlers with more options for the leg length.
There are two lengths of rails, depending on the ski that you own, so please make sure you select the correct surf ski when making your purchase online to ensure the correct length is dispatched.
Short Rails with small increment holes for V10 (Gen 1,2 and 3) / V10L/ V12/ V14 (Gen 3) Footboard
Long Rails with small increment holes for V6/ V8/ V9/ V10Sport/ V10Double (Gen 3 foorboard), v10 Gen 4
All models, paddles and plastics are in stock and available online for either an immediate delivery (or, worse case, it won't be far away).
Prior to placing your order, please check with Epic Kayaks Australia (0413135140) for an accurate ETA. If we don't have the ski ready to go, it should be just around the corner.
Thank you for your continued support from the Epic team.
