Does anyone have the dimensions or know of a supplier for a new tiller for the 7.9. I am afraid my tiller is on it's last leg and I don't have the time to bring it back.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks

I may be able to build you one depending on what you wanted and how fast you needed it. I have built a few before.

Ours broke last summer. We got a laminated one from the shelf at West Marine that was narrow enough. It was about $50. We took a couple of pieces of teak and made shims to build it up to the correct thickness, glued them on with some 5200, sanded and shaped to look good and varnished it.
It works great and looks great.
Total time was about 4 hours. Total money, including glue, screws and varnish was under $65.
We aren't doing NOOD or any serious racing so 'rules' aren't an issue, but . . .
