Hi
I am new to the forum and trawler boating so I am hoping for some advice.. I have a 1981 Marine Trader 34 with a Syten hydraulic helm system that is leaking and needs to be replaced. So far I have seen a Seastar inboard steering system that looks like it will do the job. Does anyone out there have experience with helm replacement? Looking for advice on systems and installation - what works? Can you replace it yourself if you are generally handy? Any advice welcome.
