Hello there!
Last fall I made a bit of a booboo and dropped my tiller as I was climbing down from the boat. It fell some 1 meter onto asphalt and broke cleanly in two. Apparently it had broken in the past and had been repaired.
Luckily a friend of mine is studying to be a carpenter, and agreed to manufacture me a new tiller from teak and all that other good stuff, under the watchful eye of his teachers. The tiller is almost finished, just lacking a few more coats of varnish.
To the point: My friend informed me that as he now has everything setup, he might be able to easily make a couple of more tillers. The price is still a question mark, though.
So, if any of you are interested in getting a new tiller for your boats, I'm sure you could negotiate a fair deal with him.
I'll try and get him to post some photos of the completed item online for your perusal.
BR,
Mikko Airaksinen
