    Good News' Tiller

    Tony,
    Too bad plastic don't grow like wood.
    The color, the grain and the smell is so much nicer

    If you scroll to "Good News" to its thumbnails on the genoabay link...
    about 4th row down there is a shot of its "Teller"
    (Maybe that's where the word comes from?
    TELL the boat where to go with this here branch.)

    The fancicus rex tiller we see there is just about what I think Little Gull oughter have.
    Note how ... W I D E ... the tiller is at its base!
    It is a beautyful square section. A bit rounder for me on the handle. please!
    And it appears to be scrolled from solid honduras with top and bottom ash laminations added for strength and good looks!
    Interesting...


    Kurt,
    did you say you had a design for a FOAM TILLER???
