Default Re: Suggestions for seastar helm?

I tried to rebuild the helm unit one time with no luck.
Without a test bench it is (in my opinion) impossible.
There are a multitude of springs, seals and adjustments
inside the unit.
Ended up sending to a repair facility in Jacksonville, FL.
for about $200, live and learn!

The ram seals are a cake walk compared to the helm.
See ya, Ken

Thanks guys! I'm kinda leaning toward replacement. Think I found a tilt helm on CL for 2 bills!

As far as taking care of my buddy, I gave him some of this one last month.
