Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for and method of automatically actuating the movement of a rudder of a watercraft between a steering and a non-steering position in response to the speed of the watercraft. This invention is particularly applicable for use in jet-propelled watercraft, which have reduced steering capacity at low speeds.
