Can I fit Tillermate to a tubular tiller?
Yes, use the Adaptor Bracket (Part No. 528 AB) which is available from the online shop. It allows a Tillermate to be firmly fixed to tubular tillers of 38 mm (1.5″) to 50 mm (2″) diameter. back to top What does the Leading Block do? In some circumstances, Tillermate can be sensitive to the vertical angle that the line makes up from the fixings to the tiller. This is particularly noticed with classic long-keel boats where the angle of the rudder and therefore the rudder stock is anything other than vertical. The Leading Block removes any worries about that vertical angle and feeds the line into the Tillermate correctly. The other use is when the Tillermate is to be fitted to the bottom of the tiller. Experience has shown that helmsmen tend to undo the screw knob more than is necessary and the rope drops out. The Leading Block stops that happening. back to top Can I use the tiller extension and the Tillermate at the same time? Yes, particularly in the free or part-tightened modes.
