[quote=klozhald][quote=samc99us]I've never seen a tiller handle like that used on a beachcat. Not saying it can't be done, but I think you'll find that the weight at the end of an 8'+ extension to be more trouble than its worth[/quote]
That particular handle is very lightweight moulded ABS and is strongly designed. Throwing your tiller extension overboard is never a wise practice due to the excess wear on all parts while it constantly banging around, being hard to reclaim when you need it, and the senseless drag created if you are racing. When I am sitting on the back rail steering I have both the crossbar [b][i]and[/i][/b] the extension in the same hand. You could even put adhesive velcro on both pieces to have them passively attach in this position.[/quote]
