I have a problem with my skeg, how do I fix my skeg? My skeg control lever only goes down to half way or is stuck

We recommend the following:

  1. Rest or lift the stern (rear of kayak)  above the ground or water, so the skeg can lower and raise freely.
  2. Try to pull firmly on the skeg to get it down all the way, till skeg reaches its full down position (see picture below)
  3. Sometimes the skeg rope becomes loose and may get stuck at the tube entrance.
  4. By pulling it tight, it can now get back to a functional position. 
We hope that works.
