BayStar™ Hydraulic Steering

With all the new gadgets available on the marine market today I’m surprised that hydraulic steering is not used on more small boats. Lets face it, if you are about to take invest in a small craft why not increase its value by ensuring the utmost safety and performance that this steering system affords? I find it to be one of the best yet most overlooked options on the market.
Here is a photo of a customer’s 6 year-old daughter running their Nantucket Skiff equipped with BayStar™ hydraulic steering. This would neither be wise nor safe with a conventional system.
Give it a try. I think you’ll agree that hydraulic steering is worth the extra few bucks over the typical cable-type steering which is standard on almost all small boats.
