Is this the VXAD model? What is the shaft length size? I might be interested in just the shaft if it is the L model. Let me know.

After speaking with the good people at hydrovane a new replacement rudder is around the $800 mark and two new vane around $400.

Hope this helps

Vanes are $400/piece.

Looks like the newer model? Can you confirm or add some closer pictures.

If so this will be a fantastic deal for someone. Even if not they can still upgrade to the newer fittings if they prefer.

Hydrovane makes an excellent vane and their service is tops.

Looks like this is an older model, have a close look at the OP’s first pic.

Yes mid 90’s I’m told so not a newer model.

I bought a used Hydrovane and have rudder shaft and housing for it. It's 36 inches and was to short for my boat.

[Rogsails]

Any takers at $2000?

Did the same. Bought newest version used for $1600 plus shipping and 36 inch was to short. At the time it was $1000 for shaft and another $1000 for the housing. Bought 2 x52 inch tube 316 for a $100 and super duplex alloy shaft for $300. $150 for machining both of them . You do the math. The thing that I didn’t foresee is that when under sail my boat burry her but so the rudder is almost fully submerged

Selling because it doesn’t work? I have one. It won’t hold a course for more than few minutes. Looking for other options.
