    I have a leak in the main helm Ultraflex pump in my 2019 C-30 Sedan, and I would like to replace it. Can you tell me what UFLEX model number was installed in the 2019 C30 boats (pumps at both the main and aft helm stations). Thank you!

    Adding hydraulic fluid to steering

    We have a 2017 30cb. What is tge correct way to add fluid? If I add it to the upper helm station, does it flow to the lower? I have been reluctant to open the lower station cap, fearing that would drain the upper.

    2024 Ranger TugR31-S steering locks up

    I have a brand new 2024 ranger tug r31S. The steering freezes up for a min then goes back to normal. Auto pilot is off. This is very annoying and dangerous especially when trying to pull into my boat slip since I have little to no control of the boat except for the thrusters. Are there a...

    Garmin auto pilot erratic at low (trolling) speed

    What hydraulic pump is installed on the c288? The boat has problems holding a heading at slow speeds. I’ve read online that some garmin hydraulic pump models are not rated for slow speeds. I am also thinking of installing an external GPS antenna to see if that helps Ed Old Bold Diver
