These tie bar kits are used when linking hydraulically steered twin outboard engines with just one pivot-mount steering cylinder.
The HO6001 Tie Bar Kit has a Drive Bracket at the Hydraulic Cylinder end, and a Slave Bracket at the other end for attaching to the tiller arm on the second (slave) outboard.
Kit includes the adapter plate(s), tie bar, and hardware required to connect twin engines that utilize a single front-mount outboard steering cylinder.
NOTE – The HO6001 kit is for engines rated 300 HP or less (each), with engine center-center distances of 26" to 36". For wider engine centers, engines exceeding 300 HP (each), and ALL "performance" type boats please call Seastar Solutions Technical Support at 610-495-7011.
For triple engine applications, add a second tie bar kit of the type you would use for a dual engine set-up. This will be determined by the number of steering cylinders used, and the engine type.
Refer to the included Compatibility Chart image for specific outboard engine recommendations, as well as notes and exceptions.
This SeaStar tie bar is designed for use only with SeaStar hydraulic cylinders. It may not be compatible with cylinders from other manufacturers.
