Probably the prettiest wheel I've ever seen.

We currently have them in stock in platinum/silver, red or blue.

I'd be happy to quote anyone an OSO "good guy" price.

I may take you up on that! Can you contact Isotta and see what color they may have available that is close to my dash color? Thanks.

I just ordered and received a new shipment of the wheels. No purples were available at that time.

Soooo......I callled Isotta this afternoon and nothing has changed. The only colors being manufactured in the Aria wheel are Red, Blue and Platinum/Silver. They currently have no plans to offer this particular wheel in other colors.

That does look really nice and goes well with the silver gelcoat surrounding the black dash. I don't think it would go to well in my application with all the white. Will keep looking. Lot of options out there. Always looking for recommendations though, so keep them coming!

You could always go all chrome, or white if they can't match the purple......nice boat by the way!! Eric

Robert was ever so gracious enough to allow my wife and me the wonderful opportunity to drive the new 353 this past weekend. Words can not describe how great this boat is.

There are so many great things about this boat, I feel I would be doing it an injustice to brag on the steering wheel but it's hard not to. The wheel has a VERY substantial feel to it and is beefy in all the right places. Best wheel I have ever steered (if that's a word) bar none. Out in scalding hot sun and stayed cool and what a great contrast to the boat's interior.
