The present invention discloses a marine fishtail rudder, including a rudder blade, a first tail plate and a second tail plate. The rudder blade includes a first rudder surface and a second rudder surface. The first tail plate is hinged on the first rudder surface. The second tail plate is hinged on the second rudder surface. An electric motor is provided in the rudder blade. The electric motor is used to drive the first tail plate and the second tail plate to rotate, so that a trailing edge of the first tail plate and a trailing edge of the second tail plate are close to or away from a trailing edge of the rudder blade. The present invention discloses a marine fishtail rudder, wherein tail plates are respectively arranged on the two rudder surfaces of a rudder tail portion, and the tail plates are rotated by an electric motor. When steering, the tail plates are unfolded to form a rudder shape of a fishtail rudder to obtain a higher rudder effect. When sailing straight or reversing, the tail plates are closed to form a rudder shape of a streamlined rudder and reduce the resistance of the rudder.

A stand-alone modular removable rudder system for watercraft having a rudder comprising a steering handle coupled to a quick release mechanism adapted to releasably secure said steering handle to said watercraft in proximity to the operator, said system further comprising, a rudder mount adapted to be coupled to the rear of the watercraft by a quick release mechanism adapted to releasably secure said rudder mount to said watercraft, said rudder being carried by a rudder support pivotal about said rudder mount and cables operatively connecting said steering handle to said rudder mount whereby the steering handle can be operated to steer the rudder.

A catamaran oil production apparatus is disclosed for producing oil in a marine environment. The apparatus includes first and second vessels that are spaced apart during use. A first frame spans between the vessels. A second frame spans between the vessels. The frames are spaced apart and connected to the vessels in a configuration that spaces the vessels apart. The first frame connects to the first vessel with a universal joint and to the second vessel with a hinged connection. The second frame connects to the second vessel with a universal joint and to the first vessel with a hinged or pinned connection. At least one of the frames supports an oil production platform. One or more risers or riser pipes extends from the seabed (e.g., at a wellhead) to the production platform (or platforms). In one embodiment, the production apparatus includes crew quarters.

A life-jacket with an integrated rudder for navigating water currents is shown. The jacket integrated rudder is for water navigation in swift currents and is of simple construction, using a cord with handles to steer the attached rudder by pull of cord attached handles side-to-side.

A clamp assembly for connecting a rudder to an aquatic device having a body with a first end, a second end, a top and a bottom. A clamp having a screw connected to a pivot pin disposed within a clamp head is removably connected to the top of the body for selectively applying a clamping force on the body. The clamp handle in some bodies tapering to an end to allow placement within a retaining slot of a fin box.
