I'm was up at Olalla lake and was noticing some issues with my rudder.  Rudder was fully extended and working great as long as I wanted to turn left.  If I wanted to go right I noticed it felt much more difficult to use the hand rudder to take the turn.

It would eventually turn, but was definitely noticeable.  On the kayak itself, I see that the hand controls are not necessarily in sync with each other.  I've men looking for videos but no luck yet. 

Any suggestions on where to begin looking for the problem.  The hull is pretty clean with very little in the way to foul up the cables.

Thanks!
