Has anybody tried converting the Northneaster tiller/rudder to a more traditional tiller setup? I find the push-pull aspect disconcerting, especially since it changes on each tack. It also has a "loose" feel no matter now tight I make the connection. Perhaps it has been discussed in a previous thread. Any ideas appreciated. Thanks
Check out John's comments on the thread titled "Dory Tiller Extension Rub On Rail--Ideas?" I agree the different direction on port or stbd tack is initially confusing and instead of looking at it as one direction of the stick makes you turn up and the ofher makes you go down, but on the other tack it reverses...the easier way I am going to try is that one direction goes left and the other direction goes right regardless of which tack you are on. Having the offset tiller allows seating in the rear plus....well, just see John's comments.
