A tiller (100) for a marine drive comprises a base bracket assembly (102) for fixed attachment to a marine drive. The tiller (100) also comprises a tiller arm (104) coupled to the base bracket assembly (102). The tiller arm (104) is pivotable about a tilt axis (299) relative to the base bracket assembly (102). The tiller (100) also comprises a tilt mechanism (300) having a tilt bracket (302) coupled to a first one of the base bracket assembly (102) or the tiller arm (104) and a pawl (324) coupled to a second one of the base bracket assembly (102) or the tiller arm (104). The tilt mechanism (300) is movable into an engaged position in which the pawl (324) engages the tilt bracket (302) to retain the tiller arm (104) in a selected one of a range of tilt positions relative to the base bracket assembly (102), and into a disengaged position in which the pawl (324) is disengaged from the tilt bracket (302) such that the tiller arm (104) is freely pivotable about the tilt axis (299) relative to the base bracket assembly (102). The pawl (324) is coupled to the second one of the base bracket assembly (102) or the tiller arm (104) by a tilt shaft (320) which defines a tilt shaft axis (322) about which the pawl (324) is pivotable into the engaged position and the disengaged position.
