Compatibility Information:
The EA/900DB is designed for use with narrow cockpit boats, habitable racing boats, and Mini 6.50 yachts. Its diabolo universal joint is particularly preferred by single-handed yachtsmen, as it returns the tiller extension to a vertical position when not in use. This feature is commonly utilized in Mini Transat, Open 60s, and other boats predominantly tiller-steered by autopilot.
