Did you get the Gemlux with the integral knob?

With the straight vertical mounted helm on the Sceptre (as opposed to a center console, angled helm), not sure if the knob will interfere with my legs or uh.. other body parts.
Loved the knob on my 18 tho.

Yes I use the one with the knob on my Sceptre. It makes maneuvering and steering so much easier. I’ve never noticed it interfering with anything

I’m good for the 200.00 if available. But I’d love some more info on this angled spacer that seastar makes. Did you find yours? This is my current wheel, would yours be an easy changeover?

Wondering if anybody has any pics of Sceptre original canvas.

The boat was equipped originally with a 3-bow Navy top, not a bimini top. Snapped to the front of the windshield, and then the side curtains snapped to the frame of the side windows.

Zack,

Here is a pic of the spacer I believe Ken is referring to. I have this one in the tower on my boat:

what’s the best control knob to get for my wheel below ? If yours is no longer avail I may buy a suicide knob for it...... thanks

You can obviously turn it the other way in your case.

Sorry Guys, I'm and Eagles fan and it has been a good, long weekend for me needless to say.
Dginge, Yes the wheel is available but I have to go look for the angle spacer in the "Shed of Doom". I will back to you later this afternoon and see if I can find it. It is just like the one in Eric's pic and the only mods would like be longer or different helm fittings if you just have elbows on the back of the helm.

Sounds good. If the spacer is reversed how in the world can you top of fluid if the fill hole is on bottom?! 😳. What am I missing. Ha

They make one with the opposite angle.
