Product Information
- Compatible with EA & EJ tiller extensions
- Spare part for Spinlock tiller extensions fitted with diabolo joints
- Alternative to the E-JOINT and E-JOINTGP universal joints fitted to EA and EJ tiller Extensions
- Windsurf style universal joint returns the extension to a vertical position when it is not in use
- Used by short-handed sailors to keep the tiller extension clear from obstruction while steering by autopilot through manoeuvres
- Non-mechanical helm feedback preferred by some while hand steering
- Used in Mini Transat, Class 40s, Figaro, Open 60s and many other boats that are predominantly tiller steered by autopilot
- Stiffer E-DIABOLO/J minimises ‘waving’ caused by tiller and boat motion when tiller is in vertical position
