Seastar hydraulic steering question

[Taroola]

Hi, if any of you are running Seastar hydraulic steering on a 150hp optimax could you tell me the cylinder model thats fitted to it. Dealers are telling me HC5345 which is pretty much the default cylinder, yet the seastar website is saying HC6345 which is actually a "pro" cylinder.
Thanks in advance, cheers

I have a hc5345 on my 115hp etec and love it.

All depends on boat builder and spec but the vast majority of Seastar steering are H5345 for non race use. H6345 are used on bigger Hp motors in high speed situations.

Is that that on a 150 opti ?

[seamonkey]

Mine was on a 175 Opti.

Thats close enough, cheers

Yeah sorry it's a 150 opti, full noise at 80klmh I can go hands free and requires barely any preasure to steer.
