Hydraulic Steering Service and Repair
After you describe your problem below, click “Add to Cart” and fill in all your information as if placing an order. This will send us your name and address info and you can ship us your package with the receipt that you get inside the package in a zip lock bag.
Be sure you wrap your unit in several sealed plastic bags so no oil leakage will occur in shipping. Pack your unit TIGHTLY in the shipping box so it WILL NOT SHIFT IN TRANSIT. We hate to see shafts sticking out of the box upon arrival because someone thought a 10 pound block of aluminum and steel would not break through a cheap cardboard box with no packing material.

Hydraulic Steering Service and Repair
There are a few Hynautic models still being manufactured. If you have a Hynautic steering system on your vessel that is not functioning properly, we can probably service and reseal it for you.( We do service and rebuild all brands of hydraulic steering units and we recommend that if you currently have a unit that you rebuild, rather than purchase new to save a considerable amount of money.)
H-20 series helm apart on workbench
We do not recommend that you try to replace the seals yourself. It IS NOT a do-it-yourself job.
Now that you have it apart, what do you do….even if you get it back together, how do you know you didn’t lose any parts, how do you set the timing?
There are no manuals or instructions available.
We rebuild all hydraulic steering units, usually within a week turn-around.
If you need to know the model of your steering helm, on many brands it is stamped on the back of the unit near where the hoses connect. There are many manufacturers of hydraulic steering and we service them all; Hynautic, Teleflex, SeaStar, Morse, Char-Lynn, and others.
Servicing hydraulic steering units is NOT a do-it-yourself project.
We will gladly look at your unit and give you a price quote. There is a $35.00 minimum tear-down and inspection fee for this service. This will be credited to your repair charges if we rebuild/reseal your unit. (If you send us a box of loose parts because you already took it apart, there will be a surcharge to rebuild the unit before we can determine the rebuild cost. That surcharge will be credited to the cost of the rebuild if you decide to have us do it.)
To Send us your unit for repairs, fill in the text box above with the following information: LET US KNOW WHY YOU ARE SENDING US YOUR UNIT. (EX. leaking from the shaft OR will only turn one way) ALSO, LET US KNOW IF SOMEONE ELSE HAS WORKED ON IT RECENTLY. PLEASE GIVE US AS MUCH INFORMATION AS YOU CAN.
Then continue as if you are placing an order by clicking ‘Add to Cart’. There will be no charge at this time and we will not ask for your credit card until we have completed your repair service.

Orca Performance Fin
The Orca Performance Fin from Boaters Catalog triples the effective rudder area providing a tighter turn radius and sharp crisp directional control at any speed. The larger surface area of the Orca Performance Fin blocks cavitation better than hydrofoils while adding the benefit of enhanced slow speed maneuvering and heading control. The Orca-Performance Fin installs in minutes without drilling using the 45M-Clamp kit or bolt directly to the cavitation plate using included hardware.
The Orca fin is usually mounted with the fins down but may be installed fins up without modification if you desire less aggressive control. Used and tested on fishing boats, runabouts, pontoon boats, cruisers, ski boats and bass boats (over 80 HP) since 2002.
The New Orca Heavy Duty Fin for outboards over 250 HP is now available, click here.
Fin For Trolling Motors
Our Minnow Fin For Trolling Motors from Boaters Catalog is perfect to help you keep your edge while fishing for bass, walleye or other game fish.
Whether you’re battling wind, water currents or the boat’s bobbing, the added 77 square inches of rudder area give roughly 10X the effective control compared to the electric trolling motor alone. The vertical fins increase effectiveness of steering with less power consumption. The horizontal fluke acts like a shock absorber to dampen boat bobbing increasing your comfort and safety.
The Minnow installs in minutes with just a screwdriver. It will provide directional assistance whenever it is in the water. The steering response is improved when using thrust or when using another motor for propulsion. If fishing conditions require drifting and working the current while stalking the ‘Elusive Lunker’ the minnow will add stability and limit wind effect. Fight the fish, not your boat. Tested and proven effective by Northwest fishermen.
Designed for Minn Kota 12v, 24v & 36v trolling motors.
Not intended for use on MotorGuide.

However, since you cannot raise or lower the engine as you are moving you will not receive the same performance enhancements associated with a hydraulic unit.
The 4 and 5-1/2 inch set back plates are rated for V-6 and smaller motors. They are NOT designed for V-8 or racing applications.
Manual ML-65HD, item#65512 rated for V8 400HP outboards or smaller.
