Hey folks!
Just wondering as far as bass boat hydraulic steering these days: in 2022, who is making a good steering kit for a bass boat with a 150 Merc? Needless to say, my Teleflex dual cable rack & pinion steering is heading out the door quick!
I looked around and saw NOT to go with Baystar...(anyone want to argue that point the other way?) I will say I'm not worried about speed these days, I rarely go "fast" and never even hit 50mph honestly. Most of the time I never make longer than a 10 minute run if that and fish my way back. Call me simple and old school now I guess.
I also saw Seastar's regular kit and Pro kit, but I have also been seeing people say that the seals fail or these end up leaking after about 5-6 years.
I'm wondering if there is anything better/longer lasting out there? Should I just go with the Baystar for no more than I'm running around? What's the best options, essentially?
Thanks in advance for any help or recommendations!
