What Steering Would You Fit?

A question for the Searider guys, what steering would you recommend for SR4 and 50?

What type, preferred makes and any good deals that you know of?

Cheers

this is the original system which is a great unit for a searider its a Teleflex Big T Helm and Bezel..it does make the steering incredibly easy with out having to take the Hyd route which in general is an overkill for a 90,

I have the system as specced by Matt on my 5.4 with 90 horses and it's easy to handle. I think hydraulic would just be more things to go wrong for you. Just my opinion.

Big T is a little overkill on a small boat, this would do the job quite nicely.

What I've got on a 4m Avon adventure with 50 4/s on the back - very light & simple. No need to get into hydraulic on a 4m !
