Garelick Adjustable Footrest with Teak Insert - 4-Position Aluminum Boat Footrest
The Garelick Adjustable Footrest with Teak Insert gives helm operators a stable, comfortable place to rest their feet during long hours underway. Built from heavy duty wrap around aluminum extrusion with a brushed anodized aluminum finish, the footrest pairs a corrosion-resistant frame with teak treads for secure footing in wet conditions. Modern styling and a rounded corner design eliminate sharp edges that can scrape ankles, making it comfortable to use in tight helm areas.
The footrest adjusts through 4 positions, providing 5 inches of vertical height adjustment so multiple users of different heights can find a comfortable resting position. The stepping surface is angled 18 degrees down, which reduces strain on the legs and feet compared to a flat platform, and the traction grooved surface with teak inserts adds extra grip underfoot. Measuring 7.5 inches high by 15 inches wide by 8.25 inches deep (19 x 38 x 21 cm), it is sized to fit typical helm footwell installations.
This footrest is well suited for boats where the helm seat is used by more than one operator, since the adjustable height accommodates a range of user preferences without requiring a different footrest for each person.
