A device for improving steering in a watercraft. The device has a frame attached to two parallel blades. The device pivotally attaches to an attachment point on a steerable nozzle of a watercraft. Frame of device has two curved mount brackets that are substantially parallel to one another having a first end and second end. A mount bracket connector connects the two mount brackets at the first end. The mount bracket connector includes a down force regulator, that folds back over mount bracket connector. Each mount bracket terminates at its second end with a lift tab. Lift tabs direct water flow in a generally downward and outward direction as watercraft moves through the water. Each mount bracket bolts to a blade, thereby holding the two blades securely parallel to one another.
