SeaStar Safe-T QC Quick Connect Rotary Steering Kit SS13710, 10-Foot Single Station Cable

The SeaStar SS13710 is a Safe-T QC (Quick Connect) mechanical rotary steering kit built for single-station boats using sterndrive, inboard, or power-assisted power steering setups. It is the traditional SeaStar mechanical steering solution for applications that do not require a No Feedback (NFB) system. The kit delivers a quick three-turn lock-to-lock response and is designed to accept steering wheels up to 16 inches in diameter on a standard 3/4 inch round tapered steering shaft.

Installation is simplified by SeaStar's patented Quick Connect cable system, which snaps into the helm without tools, using the SeaStar Solutions Quick Connect (QC) cable in place of older threaded connections. The SS13710 kit includes the steering cable, helm, a 90 degree bezel, and the industry-standard Safe-T mounting hardware needed for a complete single-station installation. It is built to replace SeaStar Solutions Safe-T helms manufactured since 1968 with little or no dash modification required.

Construction is metal with a black finish, and the kit meets A.B.Y.C. Standards and N.M.M.A. Certification requirements. For boats running dual cable, non-power-assisted outboard or sterndrive steering, SeaStar recommends its No-Feedback steering line instead of this Safe-T QC kit.
