Re: Emergency Tiller

You could probably have one fabricated.

Re: Emergency Tiller

Thanks for input, I contacted the previous owner and he directed me to where he stored it, and I found it on the boat. It was buried in the bowels of the boat and looks like it was once on the ocean floor but it is functional and with a little cleaning and powder coating will look new again.

Mine broke at Yamba NSW. Dean from the Plank Shop ( The Plankshop - Company - Yamba - Info | Facebook ) was nice to give me a big bit of hardwood he had sitting around the back. With a few hand tools and some epoxy I reckon I knocked out a pretty decent replacement! Thanks again to Dean for the "plank".
