Hobie Compass/Compass Duo/Outback Aluminum Handle Upgrade

We’ve designed this handle to not only upgrade the strength and raise the steering for easy access but also include a CNC machined bush to reduce the play and support the shaft when turning. This bush and handle combo is machined from Billet aluminum and plastic with high precision to allow both parts to move smoothly and have no sloppy feel. We’ve stayed away from bearings or any other component that is vulnerable to the elements and come up with this plastic/aluminum combo.

The extended and raised section makes it easier to use with larger rudders or in the current. You can also tension it down to help keep your kayak tracking straight so you can spend more time with your hand off the handle. It is made from an acetal base and aluminum CNC machined top. An m6 thread in the front allows you to attach a steering knob to the end if you wish.

Please select either a pre-2021 or 2021 and newer handle.
