Raymarine Tiller Bracket, For Tiller Pilots, Horizontal Mounting

Overview

The Raymarine Tiller Bracket is a mounting accessory for Raymarine tiller pilot installations where the tiller sits higher or lower than the fixed end of the tiller drive. It gives the tiller pilot a horizontal mounting position, which helps the drive line up correctly with the tiller instead of working at an awkward angle.

This bracket range is available in 1 inch, 2 inch, and 3 inch lengths, giving installers a simple way to compensate for different tiller heights on tiller-steered sailboats. It is a practical fit item for cockpit autopilot setups, especially when replacing hardware, correcting a previous installation, or fitting a tiller pilot on a boat where the standard mounting geometry does not line up cleanly.

Key features

• Allows horizontal mounting of a Raymarine tiller pilot when the tiller height does not match the fixed end of the drive.
• Available in 1 inch, 2 inch, and 3 inch length options for different cockpit and tiller layouts.
• Helps keep the tiller pilot drive aligned with the tiller, reducing side loading from a poor mounting angle.
• Useful for new tiller pilot installations, refits, and setup corrections on tiller-steered sailboats.
• Small hardware accessory that can make a significant difference when the tiller pilot cannot be mounted level with standard fittings alone.

Variants

This Raymarine tiller bracket is offered in several length configurations so the bracket can match the vertical offset between the tiller and the tiller pilot drive end.

The length is the changing attribute across these variants. The mounting purpose remains the same across the range: helping the tiller pilot sit horizontally when the tiller and drive end are not at the same height.

• D009: Length 1 inch. This shorter bracket is used when only a small height correction is needed between the tiller and the fixed end of the tiller drive.
• D010: Length 2 inches. This mid-length option gives more offset for installations where the tiller sits noticeably above or below the drive end.
• D011: Length 3 inches. This longer option is for setups that need a larger height correction to bring the tiller pilot into a level working position.

Installation and fit

Before ordering, measure the height difference between the tiller pilot drive line and the tiller attachment point, then match that offset to the closest bracket length. The goal is to let the tiller pilot work in a straight, horizontal line when engaged, rather than forcing the drive to push or pull at an angle.

This is especially relevant on cockpit layouts where the tiller shape, coaming height, mounting socket position, or previous hardware placement prevents the tiller pilot from lining up naturally. A correct bracket length helps the autopilot installation feel cleaner and reduces unnecessary stress on the drive and tiller connection.

Use on board

This bracket is a good match for sailors fitting or servicing a Raymarine tiller pilot on a tiller-steered boat where mounting geometry is the main obstacle. It is most relevant for coastal cruising, club sailing, and shorthanded sailing setups where the tiller pilot needs to engage smoothly and steer without the mounting hardware fighting the tiller angle.
