My emergency tiller could not reach the hole in the top of the rudder since the stern step with the removable plate (to access the rudder post) was offset enough that the tiller could not reach the rudder post--finding that out when needed would be a REAL EMERGENCY! I had the marina redo the tiller to fit--no big deal for someone who know how to weld SS pipe--and not too costly. It was made just short enough to miss the wheel/pedestal--however, the lever arm is thus pretty short. I wouldn't want to steer for long with my short tiller on my long (36 ft) boat!

The pedestal is NOT in the way but the wheel is.

However, it would appear that I’d have to remove the wheel pedestal to have room for it to work. If so, does anybody have any experience doing that?? I’m also thinking 1986–this sucker is likely to be very challenging to unbolt!
