Overview
The Attwood Marine 8315-4 is a 13 inch soft-grip steering wheel built for boats that use a standard 3/4 inch tapered helm shaft.
It uses a soft black PVC outer rim over a one-piece high-impact plastic inner core, with a 3-3/8 inch dish that gives the wheel a deeper hand position at the helm. The non-magnetic construction helps avoid compass interference, and the wheel conforms to ABYC P-22 and ISO 8848.
This size and shape make sense on bass boats, sport boats, and runabouts where you want a wheel that feels familiar without crowding the dash. It is also a practical replacement when an older wheel has become hard, faded, or slippery after long sun exposure.

- Soft black PVC outer rim with a one-piece high-impact plastic inner core

- Non-magnetic wheel body helps prevent interference with nearby compass readings
- Conforms to ABYC P-22 and ISO 8848
Compatibility and fit
Before ordering, check that your steering system uses the common 3/4 inch tapered shaft found on many small to mid-size recreational boats. The 13 inch diameter is a good match where helm space is limited, while the 3-3/8 inch dish moves the grip slightly closer to the driver and can change clearance around the dash and throttle.
This wheel is a straightforward fit for many replacement jobs on bass boats, sport boats, and runabouts. It suits owners who want a softer hand feel at the helm without moving to a larger wheel or changing the shaft standard.
Use on board
The soft outer rim and deeper dish work well on boats that are driven seated, standing, or while shifting position around the helm. The non-magnetic build also makes sense on smaller helms where the compass sits close to the wheel and any interference is more noticeable.
