Our EC3 Carbon PowerWheel has been a steady hit since its introduction. With its combination of classic style and carbon flair (plus its near-weightlessness), it's an obvious choice for a ton of applications from lightweight skiffs and flats boats to blacked-out upper stations or a modern contrast against a teak helm pod.

For the first time, the EC3's carbon knob is available as a stand-alone part. Molded in carbon fiber and epoxy, this gorgeous beast provides an awesome pop against any of our PowerWheel styles, or any other wheel. Twin races of Delrin ball bearings ensure smooth operation for sure-handed steering for years to come. Includes kit for either direct- or strap-mounted installation.
