SeaStar SSC21923-1 Jet Boat Steering (JBS) Cable, 23 Feet

The SeaStar SSC21923-1 is a 23-foot mechanical steering cable built for Jet Boat Steering (JBS) systems. It is the core component that connects the helm to the jet drive nozzle, translating wheel input into steering motion. SSC219 series cables are designed exclusively for JBS systems and are not interchangeable with other SeaStar steering cable families, so confirming the part number of the cable being replaced is an important step before ordering.

This cable is engineered for jet boat applications using Mercury Sport Jet or OMC Turbo Jet drives up to 175 hp, and it meets or exceeds NMMA and ABYC marine standards for steering system reliability. It is made, designed, and assembled in the USA. The SSC219XX series, which includes this 23-foot cable, replaces the earlier SSC229XX series of jet boat steering cables, giving boat owners a direct upgrade path when an older cable needs replacement. Only genuine SeaStar Solutions hardware should be used with this cable; substituting other mounting hardware is not recommended.
