Barton 900mm Carbon Fiber Tiller Extension with Blue Grip

The Barton 900 mm carbon-fiber tiller extension gives sailboat helms a lightweight reach extension for steering from a more comfortable position. The carbon-fiber shaft reduces unnecessary weight in the helmsman’s hand, while the blue grip provides a defined holding surface during repeated steering adjustments.

A tiller extension lets the helmsman shift body position for balance, visibility, and sail trim without giving up direct tiller control. The 900 mm length offers useful reach for compatible cockpit layouts and can help the operator remain positioned where weight distribution and sightlines are most effective.

Confirm the tiller fitting, mounting geometry, articulation, and required working length before installation. The extension should move freely through the full steering range without binding against cockpit hardware. Inspect the shaft, grip, universal joint, and fasteners periodically for looseness or damage.

Key Features

• Extend steering reach from the tiller: The 900 mm shaft lets the helmsman control the tiller from a wider range of cockpit positions.
• Reduce hand-held steering weight: Carbon-fiber construction provides stiffness and reach without excessive mass.
• Maintain a secure hand position: The blue grip gives the operator a defined holding surface.
• Improve freedom of movement in the cockpit: Extended reach helps the helmsman reposition while retaining tiller control.
