Can anyone recommend a tiller extension that they've installed on their 19'?

Thanks,

A SS clip, a 3/4" dowel, a 2" bolt, a butterfly nut and couple of
washers and you get an easily removable tiller extension. Cut it
the right length and it becomes a tiller tamer... Put a bicycle rubber
handle bar cover at the end and it becomes very comfortable to use.
Add a second bolt and it makes a long tiller handle so you can steer
from cabin. Paint it nicely and it looks pretty. Or cover it with PVC and
it looks factory built...
