Having the proper tiller and tiller extension configuration on your boat will enhance your boat handling capabilities. With the right length tiller extension, you'll be able to hike out further in big breeze. We stock aluminum and carbon fiber options from major brands, to meet the needs of both recreational and competitive sailors.
Carbon fiber tillers and extensions are a popular upgrade amongst competitive sailors. Carbon is lighter weight and often times has a slimmer profile. Carbon is also stiffer than its aluminum counterparts, which means less bending when sailing through waves, ultimately leading to more precise and responsive steering. Aluminum tillers and extensions are a great option for recreational sailors, sailing schools and programs and tend to be much more affordable. If you have any more questions, be sure to reach out to our staff who can help you find what you need.
