C22 Tiller, Strap, and Cover

Ordered a tiller, strap, and cover from Catalina Direct for less money including shipping and brokerage fees than what a tiller costs from WestMarine.



The Tiller and strap are actually for a Catalina 25; I like how the tiller angles up.  Sometimes the old straight tiller would get caught up on lines, cockpit seats, and limbs!

The U shaped stainless tiller strap is very beefy, and will clean up the rudder slop that the old tiller and straps had.  I priced out some rough stainless to make this part, it would have cost over $30 just for the stainless.  It would still have to be bent, drilled, and polished.

The sunbrella cover will keep the tiller looking nice.

Will return the other tiller to WestMarine.



 
As a bonus, I just realized that I now have a backup tiller.  Was always my todo list, but falling off!
