What ADD-ON hydraulic Steering is best to buy??
Hello Guys
I have an Baja232 that go good over 70 mls. maybe 74-75 can be done,but my boat become chinewalk after 70 if water is not like mirror.
I have new Teleflex steering in my boat but think now to buy an add-on outside steering as drive has with also new transom and steering 0,5- 0,8 inch sideplay.
What you think is the best system for my small boat and must i have 2 steering cylinders outside or is one ok?
thanks for help,as i real not know what are good or not so good add-on systems!
best regards from Germany

I have IMCO dual ram. Great system and IMCO has the best customer service around. And I'll tell you why... Had to order a couple seals and the guy accidentally sent me the wrong box, to make it right he overnighted the correct parts and let me keep the $100 worth of bolts and stuff. Keep in mind I only ordered $20 worth of seals. They will answer any maintenance, rebuild, sales questions without telling you to take it to service. Just a great company IMO. On a side note my buddy has a boat similar to yours and has a single ram and is happy with it, he did look into adding the dual ram but didn't because of price.

Hello
Thanks to all for your meanings! And i happy to get more infos about best setup for my boat,as i try to hold it for next years!
I made engine (new 8.2 with CMI and Whiplle PCM) and all technic new last 2 years! So also transom and complet steering from rear to front is new.thats why i like to have only an Add-On steering. the mayfair has option to make later second cylinder at other side and i like design from the mount on the Drive,as it fit on my swept back upper without any mods.
Of cours it is a matter of price,why i like to take first only one cylinder,but maybe later i add second.
The Price for add-on with only one is much lower and i like also to buy long trim tabs next time ,as no one on my boat.
When i buy steering with 2 cylinders,i think no money for Tab this winter!!
So what you mean is bets to do first??
anyone drive the Mayfair stuff?
And i understand not rela the problem with one ram and gimble trouble and not balanced!!??
Thanks for help!
Fact is that a dealer here in germany has an mayfair for sale with single cylinder but new and all complet! that makes it more easy to take this .all other i must import from usa!
