XS Performance - THANK YOU!!!
I called XS Performance today to see if Brian Alfry (the owner) could look at my hydraulic steering sometime soon. I thought it seemed too stiff.
Brian said, "No problem bring it over today (Sunday) and I'll take a look at it. I took my boat over and Brian & Ron dropped the work they were doing and immediately checked out my hydraulic steering system. Bryan seemed to think it might have some air in the system and bleed the lines. As he was checking it out he noticed that the system pushed too far from left stop to right stop. This caused my gimble to pull on my transom quite a bit. Brian said this needed adjusted right now! This took allot of his time to make the needed adjustments. Brian explained that in time the gimble or transom would have been ripped off or badly cracked due to the force of the hydraulic system pushing it too far to the right & left. (I don't want to know what this would have cost me someday) When Brian & Ron finished I asked how much I owed them and Brian said.....NOTHING!!!
This may not seem incredible to you, but it did to me and I want to thank them on here for their hard work. BTW this wasn't even one of Brian’s top notch hydraulic steering systems, it was some one else’s!!! WOW!!! These guys are first class all the way and very reputable people to work with. If you're looking for a hydraulic steering system you owe it to yourself to check them out, top shelf people & products.
Thanks again Brian & Ron for your hard work, IOU one big time!!! http://www.xsperformancemarine.biz/

Brian makes some excellent heavy duty systems!
I think I will have him finish mine to the helm so I have a complete hydraulic steering system.
2006 Season Update:
I did have Brian finish my steering system to the helm and it has been one of the best things I have done to my boat!
It is so much easier to navigate around the docks and it tight spaces. Well worth it!
