Hydraulic boat steering Hydrive
MODEL 103-105
The new improved performance, and unique oil balanced design make these helm units the ultimate for yacht steering where feed-back to the wheel is required. The efficiency of the design means that even small loads can be sensed at the wheel, giving the “feel” of mechanical steering with all the safety and advantages of hydraulics.
As a result of years of intense research and development, HyDrive Hydraulic steering offers huge advantages for sailing boats :-
- Instant movement - No slack!
- Simple installation with hydraulic tubing that can be run literally anywhere on the boat - no more straight line cables, pulleys, or sheaves!
- Fully compatible with hydraulic autopilots
- Totally Manual - no power required
- Ease of fitting to wind-vanes
- Safety and reliability that only hydraulics can offer. (You trust hydraulics to stop you safely in your car)
- Cost savings on expensive quadrants (Overall costs on a complete hydraulic system will most likely work out considerably less that an equivalent cable system of equal quality and power)
