Subject: Broken Tiller during 3/22 Mid-Winters
Info: (18162 views) Posted: Monday 3-22-04 12:58:34 PM
Great racing this past Saturday! With the first postponement, it looked like a long afternoon of drifting conditions but the "summer" wind pattern suddenly turned on during the first weather leg where we saw a steady 20 knots near Alcatraz!

Unfotunately our tiller cracked at the attachment point when I pushed down on the end to reattach the tiller extension during the race. This crack worsened as the first race progressed and we reluctantly retired prior to the second race.

Any suggestions for where to purchase a replacement tiller? Are aluminum, carbon fiber or other tillers made and class legal? Any recommendations?
