SeaStar NFB Safe-T II Rotary Steering Kit SS13213, 13 Foot Single Cable, Fits Wheels up to 16 Inches

The SeaStar SS13213 is a complete NFB (No FeedBack) Safe-T II rotary steering kit built around SeaStar's patented No FeedBack steering mechanism, which is designed to reduce engine flutter and steering instability at the helm. The kit delivers a quick response of three turns lock-to-lock and is built in a single cable configuration, with a 13 foot cable length. It is designed to accept steering wheels up to 16 inches in diameter and installs as a direct upgrade to standard Safe-T steering without requiring dash modifications, making it a straightforward retrofit for boats already running conventional Safe-T style helms.

The kit is supplied as a complete system rather than a single component: it includes the NFB Safe-T II helm, the quick-connect (QC) steering cable, a 90 degree rotary NFB bezel, and the mounting hardware needed to complete the installation. Construction is alloy steel finished in black, and the cable is fitted with stainless steel output ends for corrosion resistance and long service life at the transom or outboard connection point. The mechanism uses a clutch design engineered to minimize free play at the wheel, giving a tighter, more consistent feel through the steering range.

This kit is intended for boaters replacing worn or feedback-prone standard Safe-T steering systems who want the added stability of SeaStar's No FeedBack design without re-cutting or modifying the dash opening.
