Sorry to say but I like the original wheel.

Polish the living daylights out of the hub and spokes, make love to the wood rim and get a hi gloss lacquer onto it. Traditional yet stylish on a '92 model boat....!

EDIT: Can't be sure from the pic but is it actually wood rim with metal frame? I may be totally off here. Oops!
