SeaStar SSC6211 11-Foot Quick Connect Rotary Steering Cable for Single-Station Boats
The SeaStar SSC6211 is an 11-foot Quick Connect rotary steering cable built for single-station boats using a rotary steering system. It uses SeaStar's Rotary Quick Connect (QC) snap-in connection, which lets the cable snap directly into a compatible helm without threading tools or complex hardware, making installation fast and straightforward.
The cable is engineered with a tightly controlled core-to-conduit fit for precise, consistent steering response. The outer jacket is constructed of HDPE (high density polyethylene), a material chosen for its resistance to abrasion and water penetration in a marine environment. The cable output end is made of stainless steel for corrosion resistance and long-term reliability, and a trapped nut on the cable end stays in place during routing to simplify installation.
This cable is designed as a replacement for the original steering cable installed by the boat manufacturer on single-station rotary steering systems, and it is intended for single-station use only. It meets or exceeds ABYC safety standards and ISO, IMCI, and NMMA certification requirements, and it is made, designed, and assembled in the USA.
