303 Products Ezy-Stik II 840 Mechanical Marine Steering System with 7 Foot Cable, Part 840-0700
The 303 Products Ezy-Stik II 840 is a complete mechanical marine steering system built around a 7 foot steering cable, designed to give boat operators direct, reliable helm control without the complexity or expense of a hydraulic setup. Mechanical rack-and-pinion steering systems like the Ezy-Stik II translate helm wheel rotation into cable movement that turns the outboard or sterndrive, offering straightforward operation and simplified maintenance compared to hydraulic alternatives. The 7 foot cable length is sized for smaller to mid-size boat helm-to-engine runs, and the system is supplied as a kit under part number 840-0700 so the helm, cable, and mounting hardware are matched from a single source. At 10 pounds, the complete system is manageable for a single installer to handle during a helm or steering system upgrade or repair. This steering system is intended for boat owners and marine technicians replacing worn-out steering cables or upgrading from an older mechanical steering setup, and it is identified by UPC 096369840708 for easy verification at the point of purchase.
