• Adjustable Length: Telescopes seamlessly from 24" to 40", with an 17" to 25" extension range for customized fit to your setup and seating position.
• Universal Compatibility: Works with virtually all outboard and trolling motors, ensuring it's a go-to solution for any boat configuration.
• Twist-and-Lock Mechanism: Simple twist to loosen, slide to your desired length, and twist again to secure—no tools required for quick adjustments on the water.
• Ergonomic Design: Comfortable grip reduces hand fatigue during long days of fishing, letting you focus on the catch rather than your comfort.
• Durable Construction: Built to withstand marine environments, with corrosion-resistant materials that hold up season after season.

Why Anglers Choose the MKA-44 for Better Control

Imagine docking your boat in windy conditions or trolling through weed beds without leaving your seat. The MKA-44 extension handle puts total command at your fingertips, enhancing safety and efficiency. It's especially handy for larger boats where the tiller feels just out of reach, or for those who prefer the relaxed posture of leaning back while scanning for fish. Regular users report fewer back strains and more enjoyable outings, as the extended leverage improves steering response and power application.

Easy Setup and Everyday Use Tips

Attaching the MKA-44 is straightforward: Align it with your motor's tiller handle, twist to loosen the collar, extend to your preferred length, and lock it tight. Test it before heading out to ensure a snug fit. For optimal performance, clean the telescoping sections after salty water exposure to maintain smooth operation. Pair it with Minn Kota's reliable trolling motors for a setup that's the envy of any fishing crew.

Real-World Benefits Backed by Boating Pros

Seasoned fishermen highlight how this handle shines in tournaments or family outings alike. It minimizes physical effort, allowing longer sessions without discomfort, and provides the extra leverage needed for quick direction changes. Unlike fixed extensions, its adjustability adapts to solo trips or when passengers crowd the stern, making it a smart, adaptable addition to your gear.
