Vintage Folbot Kayak Rudder Tiller Arm (NOS) Vintage Folbot Kayak Rudder Tiller and Arm Parts for Sailing of Folbot (NOS) This rudder tiller arm is brand new. It is still in the brown paper wrapping. RARE and Nice Folbot tiller handle with articulating extension that allows rudder control from Folbots while hiking out on side when sailing. Much different than using rudder pedal type control as hiking out places weight into the wind to allow much faster sailing and more fun. The wooden tiller with extension comes with attached metal arm that fits rudder and held in position by a pin as pictured, so easily disassembled on the go, for paddling convenience, storage and transport.
This auction includes ONLY the wooden tiller handle, extension hardware, extension also wooden and the metal arm that attaches to YOUR OWN rudder. There is no rudder or rudder blade or rudder pin included in this auction. I found this kayak rudder tiller at an estate sale in Dallas. The person that had it purchased an old Folbot kayak kit many years ago. He started working on the kayak but never finished the project.
He sold the wooden frame to a restaurant to hang from the ceiling as a decoration. I bought the rest of the accessories. They are all original and have never been used. I am assuming that they are all vintage (NOS) Folbot parts. There was an old Folbot instruction manual (1972) with the sail kit.
It was titled Folbot Super TBF. I have attempted to describe the item to the best of my ability. If I have misidentified this item please let me know. The owner is no longer around so I was not able to ask him about the items. He had a nice workshop and seemed to have a strong interest in vintage kayaks.
