dual cylinder steering from Australia

more pictures from the builder='Sportfisherman Marine' in Australia
looking for dual cylinder steering for 250/300 xs
Dual hydraulic steering will fit both motors, power over hydraulic is not essential ,however if you are competing in world style events ( 60 minits +) or doubling up races , driver fatigue is a real problem & can lead to loss of control .Steering kit comes complete with helm (seastar pro) ,all mounting brackets rams & hoses (no helm extention or steering wheel) including instructions for bleeding procedure.@ $5,000.00 (au) sea star pro power assist pump , concealed helm kit (any length), steering wheels ,trim kit ,stock helm extention can be supplied .(see images) We can assist you with your choice if you provide boat type size & intended use.

Yes of course I know them, very good after sale service with them .
We are going to use this LS dual on a SKATER 21 this year

very difficult to obtain a quote from Australia for this nice dual steering.

We already guet quotes from IMCO for a revenger 27/300xs, aquavite 740/250xs, cyclone/250xs... boats like that 250XS/300XS
using bblades OBF, PROET LAB, croxton propeller,
a few videos with the mentionned boats.





Using the Garmin video I've spent some time to compare acceleration curves using different boats , loads, setup, interesting to compare different ways to go on the water....
