The Commander provides skippers the opportunity to pilot their vessel from the port or starboard stern rail seats. The Commander is especially useful on longer passages and is an excellent backup accessory to a broken or wandering autopilot system. Great for the single-handed sailor. Visit www.steeringarm.com for additional details and ordering information.
Great for the single-handed sailor. :clap
Hello all I'm brand new here, love it! You'll find I like to talk $$ up front. I'm a veteran motorcycle forum member and it has always mystified me why folks are hesitant about talking $$. Within the top 5 reasons for joining was to save $$. With that.....
"How much is this thing?"
My hat is off to this guy, great product. Still, I'm always skeptical when someone selling something is not up front with $$. Keep these leads coming, love it here!
OK, the company got back to me. You can purchase them directly through Forespar for $139.
Here is a link to the website.

What got my attention is that the original post seemed like spam. Had I been the first to see the post, I would not have followed the link (I did follow Kens link)
The wheel attachment is available at marinepartdepot.com
The arm is available at Lowes for about $15
So that little dohicky on the end of the arm must cost about $120 8)
