steering gone again

[JonD]

Just ordered Seastar hydrolic steering after yet another cable failing, at just 6 months old. This is my third in two years which I can only put down to the sharp angles the cable has to make in my boat, the boat may be wide with its big tubes but the internal glass part is only 1.2m wide. The cables have been fraying on the bends ( each time proffesionaly fitted ).

Hopefully the new steering will last a little longer!!!

I had the same issue in my V-Sea, two split cables in under two years. I fitted the last one over two years ago but changed the angles, now no problems

I installed bullhorn Hydaulic steering in 1998 - it drives a 200+15aux linked steering setup. Same fluid tubes, cylinder and pump system still in service today - faultless and effortless. I have changed the fluid 3 times in that period - not because problems arose but because I thought I should change it.  You wont regret it.
