Please use these guides to assist in making your selection, but remember that the recommendations are general in nature. Any boat/steering system combination should be water-tested by the installer to ensure safe and dependable steering. Displacement hulls do react differently than planing hulls. As a result, the type of hull on the boat, as well as the horsepower, may affect steering system selection.
