Steering Wheel

[markowwes]

I have seen on several fishing boats, a helm at the rear of the cockpit for steering a kicker motor or just steering from the rear of the boat. The wheel itself looks to be around 6 to 8” in diameter, do you have an aluminum wheel like this or do you know where I can purchase one? I want to mount a 9.9 high thrust on one of the platforms of a 2500vx Hydra Sports, with a helm at the rear of the cockpit. I think I will be using a Baystar hydraulic kit as the motor will be too far back to use the tiller handle.

West Marine-either the US online one or try the one in Nanaimo. They can even sell you one with a spinner if it's ordered from the US.

If the wheel your looking for is a cast aluminum with a destroyer knob, I purchased mine from Trotac Marine Limited in Victoria. they are pricey wheels, but very nice. Good luck. DAJ

Too small & lathe handle shafts are straight not tapered like that of the helm pumps
