Hi, just completed this project for my narrow boat. Made from American Ash, this is a replica of an authentic Viking Tiller arm that was discovered in a boat burial in Denmark. The original tiller slotted in to the top of the steering oar and so in the same vain I have adapted the design to fit into the brass Tiller arm attached to the rudder of a narrow boat. It is hand carved using traditional patterns and also has a bee waxed hemp rope with hand made Bronze fininals.The rope on this is representable of the original rope that was used to tie the tiller in a fixed position during heavy seas. I would really appreciate your comments please. Love and Peace to all xx
