[Rhodes22-list] Tiller Tamer

[Bill Effros]

I've had a Tiller Tamer, but I prefer the Spitzer Clamp which is totally 
out of the way.  I added a second on the stern, port side.  It's much 
faster than a tiller tamer.  Is this another instance of talking about 
different things we think are the same?
