gate rudder

If the Royal Navy didn't go for the design from the early 20th century - invented their own country, why would they go for this? The original looks like a better design to my landlubber eyes.

This rudder is very similar to a rudder illustrated in Dave Gerr's book "Boat Mechanical systems". It is a quite old design and and this is merely a scaled up version.

Still cool though, I would love to have one on my boat.
