When to upgrade steering?
I have an Essex Valor 24' with a 496 HO. I am installing my new whipple. I am estimating I will be in the upper 70s or very low 80s when done. Do I need to upgrade from the bravo steering. I have seen dual and single ram external and also internal hydraulic. Any advice would be appreciated. Obviously I'm looking to stay as economical as possible. The current set up seems to have more play than it should as is so I am considering an upgrade.

It seems bravos start to wag the tails in the water past 70 also wears the gimbal faster. get twin ram steering if you can swing it. If you look in the sway shop goods deals can be had.

Yes, big time. Plus it will make much more stable.

spendy .but dam what a differance you will see . its worth every penny .

i have always heard that 70 mph was when you should consider hyd steering,but i believe it also depends on the hull.
