Basic Tiller Extension Handle for HelmsMate

The HelmsMate Tiller Extension: Full Steering and Throttle Control from a Distance

Designed for easy and comfortable operation, the HelmsMate tiller extension allows you to sit away from your trolling motor while maintaining full steering and throttle control. This innovative product improves balance, weight distribution, and overall comfort, enabling quicker and easier access to the tiller when needed.

Suitable for a wide range of applications, the HelmsMate is compatible with all trolling and outboard motors up to 15 horsepower. Manufactured in the USA, the HelmsMate is built to last, featuring heavy-duty marine-grade materials such as anodized aluminum tubing, corrosion-resistant hardware, and a durable nylon tiller clamp.

The HelmsMate line includes both fixed and extendable models to suit your specific needs. The extendable models can be easily adjusted in length by simply pressing the snap button and sliding the inner tube in or out. This snap button design ensures a secure and reliable lock, providing superior control compared to twist-lock adjustments found in competing products.

From a safety and control standpoint, the positive lock mechanism of the HelmsMate prevents accidental disengagement, making it an ideal choice for twist throttle outboards and trolling motors.

The U-joint model of the HelmsMate adds a fulcrum point where the handle meets the tiller, enabling a simple push-pull steering motion rather than a wide arc with fixed tiller extensions. This feature is particularly beneficial for users who need to remain in a fixed position while controlling the trolling speed and direction of the boat, such as when using bow-mounted trolling motors, kicker motors, kayaks, or canoes.

The U-joint model also includes a sleeve to lock out the universal joint, converting the extension into a fixed handle for those who prefer a more traditional tiller control setup.

Whether you're fishing from a boat, navigating a kayak, or powering a small sailboat, the HelmsMate tiller extension offers a versatile and reliable solution for maintaining full control of your motor while sitting in a more comfortable and balanced position.

Backed by a limited lifetime warranty, the HelmsMate is proudly made in the USA and is an essential accessory for anyone seeking to enhance their on-the-water experience.
