Tiller Extension Handle for HelmsMate

Take command of your boat with the HelmsMate tiller extension. Sit back from your trolling motor while maintaining full steering and throttle control. Improve balance, weight distribution, and comfort, and enable easier, faster access to the tiller when needed.

The HelmsMate is designed to fit all trolling and outboard motors up to 15 horsepower, and is proudly made in the USA. It is available in five models to suit your specific needs: T, TE, B, S, and U-Joint.

Customer reviews reflect the HelmsMate's popularity, with an average rating of 4.2 to 4.6 out of 5 stars across the different models. Prices range from $34.95 to $65.66.

The U-Joint model adds a fulcrum point where the handle meets the tiller, enabling simple push-pull steering rather than a wide arc with fixed tiller extensions. This is ideal for users who need to sit in one spot while controlling the trolling speed and direction of the boat, such as with bow-mounted trolling motors, kicker motors, kayaks, and canoes. The U-Joint model includes a sleeve to lock out the universal joint and convert the extension into a fixed handle.

The HelmsMate line also includes both fixed and extendable models. The extendable models can be shortened or lengthened by pressing on the snap button and moving the inner tube. The handles are machined for minimal play between the snap button and the outer tube, ensuring your steering control is maintained at all times. This snap button design is superior to twist-lock type adjustments found in competitive models, providing a more secure and safety-conscious solution for twist throttle outboards and trolling motors.

Regardless of the model, all HelmsMates are manufactured with anodized aluminum tubing, corrosion-resistant hardware, and a tough nylon tiller clamp. They are designed for trolling speeds only and are ideal for use with electric trolling motors, kicker motors, and small outboards.

Key features across the HelmsMate lineup include:

• Full steering and throttle control while sitting away from the motor
• Fits gas and electric trolling motors 15 HP and below
• Heavy-duty marine-grade materials for durability
• Extendable models with stainless steel snap button for adjustable length
• Made in the USA with a limited lifetime warranty
• Suitable for fishing boats, canoes, kayaks, and some sailboats

With the HelmsMate, you can take the helm and enjoy a more comfortable, balanced, and controlled trolling experience.
