That's a sharp set up. That eliminates all of the things that I didn't like about a wingplate. Sorry for the confusion.

That is a nice looking system.

I really liked the stainless end cap on the Mayfair but that setup is a great answer to the wingplate solution.

There are a lot of good systems out there. But, IMO skip the add-on and go all out and do the full system.

I did hear good things about thhe XS Performance system and it was priced very reasonably.

What's the difference between single and dual ram? Obviously dual would be more robust, but how much does it matter? Is it a performance thing or just reliability? Will you see a difference at 60mph? 80?

My .02, If budget is a concern, I would rather have a single ram, FULL system over a dual ram add-on. The helm unit is what really makes the diff. On a smaller, single engine boat of course.
