When I had a tiller pilot, sometimes I'd turn it off, to save the
battery, but still use it to hold the tiller to a set position.
Basically you had a hole in the tiller that a pin dropped into,
was very quick to pull out. I suppose you could make something
similar using an adjustable telescoping pole.

It is a shame. Good idea, crap materials. Also I found
it very slow to free when I needed the tiller free. That
could be dangerous.

No..... it isn't but I'm certain you must have a store like
it. I got
mine
from the local chandlery here in Canada.... but to tell the
truth... I
agree
with Bart on the Tiller Tamer..... use adjustable shock
cords and cam
cleats. I've replaced mine 3 times due to the breakage he
mentioned.
