Is your vessel seaworthy?
I've never laughed at an emergency tiller.
Finding it then fitting it is the laugh.
My C&C has a stainless steel shaft mounted in the aft locker. It fits neatly
over an exposed fitting in the cockpit. At the top of the shaft is a T shaped
handle.
Even with my formidable upper body strength, I doubt I could steer for long
with so little leverage in rough conditions.
I could lash a length of wood to it and increase leverage...
I think I'll run out and make the mod now!
