<br />My tiller is the last piece that has the cetol on it....the problem is I have been able to sail with all the other pieces in and out of Leela still in the garage but I haven't figured out how I am gonna get around with the tiller in the garage! We use her almost every weekend......I am gonna have to pick a weekend and just do it I am afraid....:(

You should likely have a spare "emergency tiller" on board. These are found in most Lowes/Home depot stores this time of year, labelled as "Wheelbarrow Handles," and sold in DIY 4-packs. 2 lengths of roughstock per pack, can be whittled down to 4 very serviceable emergency tillers.

Once you have located/made your emergency tiller, you are all set to take your usual tiller home and refinish it.
