Perfect for refitting a boat or fitting out a new yacht, fibreglass composite steering wheels have a number of advantages over the carbon version compared with the stainless steel steering wheels found on production boats:

• A much better and more comfortable grip on the helm, thanks to the larger shape and cross-section of the helm
• Excellent grip, no need for leather for a pleasant feel
• Less inertia, no oxidation, no maintenance
• The performance of carbon at a fraction of the cost
• Choice of helm colour to match that of the boat
• A complete range: diameter 700 to 1700

Mainfurl

A change of steering wheel on this Bénéteau Sense yacht with a white fibreglass composite model which is more in keeping with the boat.
The weight is 2 to 3 times less than with the standard stainless steel wheel steering system, which results in less inertia of the steering system when the autopilot is in use, especially as all standard boats nowadays have 2 steering wheels. Depending on the sea conditions, the pilot will operate in a jerky manner and will therefore suffer from the inertia of the steering system, the lighter the bars, the less the pilot will tire.
The grip of the tiller is much better and much more pleasant due to the shape and the larger tiller section (excellent grip, no need for leather to have a pleasant feel).
Available in 4 different models: Y Elegant, Y Sport, 3-spoke, 5-spoke.
