ABSTRACT:
The hiking stick is made up of first and second telescoping members which may be set in a desired telescoped position to define an overall length. One end of the stick is coupled to the end of the rudder tiller and the other end of the stick terminates in a handle. The use of the stick is simply to facilitate steering of the sailboat, particularly in situations of "coming about" where maintaining a proper hold of the rudder tiller can become awkward in the absence of the stick. The handle of the stick is designed to define an engaging structure for cooperation with a clip arranged to be secured to the tiller. By this arrangement, the handle can be received in the clip to hold the stick in generally parallel overlying position with the tiller and thus in an out-of-the-way location for convenient storage when not in use.
