Can someone please clarify whether the step built into the rudder on recent Bayraiders works? Johan and Graham touch on it, but I'm not clear what the conclusion is... and thus whether to rely on it.
Rob,
It definitely works but it's just not as easy to use as a proper ladder with several rungs. On some of the BR deliberate capsize videos, you can see people using it to get back in the boat over the stern and I have used it myself twice.
Unless he's changed it, Johan has a modified CBL (I think without a rudder notch), not a BR.
