Lewmar 42" Folding Wheel

The Lewmar Folding Wheel offers full-size helm control with the added benefit of improved cockpit space when not in use. Its innovative folding design allows the wheel to open for positive steering underway and fold away easily when manoeuvring in harbour or relaxing at anchor. Manufactured from durable, marine-grade materials, the wheel delivers reliable performance and long-term corrosion resistance in demanding marine environments. Fully compatible with Lewmar steering systems, it is an ideal upgrade for cruising yachts seeking greater cockpit access without compromising control.

Features:

Folding Wheel Space-Efficient Helm Solution

The Lewmar Folding Wheel is designed to maximise cockpit usability without compromising helm control. Ideal for cruising yachts where space and accessibility are key considerations, it provides the confidence and performance of a full-size steering wheel with the added benefit of easy cockpit clearance when at rest or alongside.

Innovative Folding Design

Engineered with a practical folding mechanism, the wheel allows sections to be opened for sailing and folded away when manoeuvring in harbour or at anchor. This adaptable design improves movement through the cockpit and enhances access to seating and companionways, particularly in tighter cockpit layouts.

Confident Steering Performance

When deployed, the Folding Wheel delivers a stable, comfortable grip and clear helm feedback comparable to a fixed wheel. Its rigidity and balanced geometry support accurate steering under sail or power, ensuring confidence and control remain uncompromised despite the space-saving design.

Installation & Compatibility

Designed for seamless integration with Lewmar steering systems, the Folding Wheel is well suited to both new builds and high-quality refit projects. Available in multiple diameters, it allows cockpit ergonomics to be tailored to vessel layout while maintaining full system compatibility and professional installation standards.
