I have worked on a hand full of DPS volvo twin engine gas boats. There is one steering cylinder hooked up to one engine. They use a tie bar and the other engine has the steering lines coupled together. Keep in mind that there is still a power steering cooler on the engine thats not doing anything, so its getting cooled. I doent c a problem with it, but i get what your talking about...pluss its another place thats going to leak oil at some point.

Hello Connor, in the process of refurbing my 79 MA, I was convinced to convert from my 1999 SeaStar helm to the new tilt style. Very expensive but found one on fleabay under $500. Not sure this was necessary, but I now have a spare SeaStar horizontal/vertical helm pump with 160 hours of use/daylight. It’s in perfect condition, even has a 15” Stainless Destroyer wheel on it from same vintage. No knob or finger grooves. Let me know if this saves you some change and if I have to I’ll try to pull a model number for you. It may help us both out because my project is WAY over budget!?! Haha

Michael.
