The kit pairs a high-efficiency XTREME steering helm with a matched XTREME QC steering cable and a Sport Tilt mechanism, giving the smoothest, lowest-effort mechanical steering in its class while keeping a small installation footprint that suits tight dash helm stations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe helm uses an improved, high-efficiency custom gear train and is built from zinc and plated steel for durability and smooth operation. The Sport Tilt mechanism provides 48 degrees of tilt across 5 adjustment positions, letting the wheel be set to suit different driving positions and body types. Both the steering cable and the spent travel tube use a quick-connect feature, so the cable, helm, and tilt mechanism install quickly without extensive dash modification. The cable itself uses splined ridges on the inner liner for close, low-friction contact with the core, supporting high steering loads while extending cable life. This kit installs in the same mounting pattern and bracket location as most current SeaStar Solutions rotary steering systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe SSX17715 kit includes a 15-foot XTREME QC steering cable and is finished in black. It is made, designed, and assembled in the USA, meets ABYC Safety Standards, and carries ISO\/IMCI\/NMMA certification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e SeaStar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e SSX17715\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e XTREME Tilt NFB Steering Kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCable Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSteering Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tilt No-Feedback (NFB) Rotary Steering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTilt Range:\u003c\/strong\u003e 48 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTilt Adjustment Positions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Components:\u003c\/strong\u003e XTREME Tilt NFB Helm (SHX97606), Sport Tilt Mechanism (SH91800B), XTREME QC Steering Cable (SSCX64xx, xx = cable length in feet), hardware and instruction sheets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelm Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Zinc and plated steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 23.38 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 27.9 x 20.5 x 6.6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertification:\u003c\/strong\u003e ABYC Safety Standards, ISO\/IMCI\/NMMA Certified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Made, designed, and assembled in the USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e Two-year recreational user warranty against manufacturing defects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 808282298807\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-station boats with a single non-power-assisted outboard engine up to a V-6, with minimal engine flutter or steering instability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstalls into nearly all SeaStar Solutions rotary steering tilt and non-tilt mounting holes with little to no dash modification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eReplaces (OEM)\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eInstalls in the same mounting pattern and bracket location as most current SeaStar Solutions rotary steering systems, allowing direct replacement of existing tilt steering setups\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat boats is the SeaStar SSX17715 designed for?\u003c\/strong\u003e The SSX17715 XTREME Tilt NFB Steering Kit is designed for single-station boats with a single non-power-assisted outboard engine up to a V-6, where engine flutter and steering instability are minimal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long is the steering cable in this kit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The SeaStar SSX17715 kit comes with a 15-foot XTREME QC steering cable.
