Ezy-Glide 870-1450 Ezy-Stik III Mechanical Stick Steering Kit 14.5 Foot

The Ezy-Glide 870-1450 Ezy-Stik III Model 870 Mechanical Steering Kit is a complete side-mount stick steering system designed for smaller boats with outboard engines. This 14.5-foot cable system features a quicker turning ratio that provides faster response and shorter lock-to-lock travel distance compared to traditional mechanical steering, making it ideal for anglers and boaters who demand precise control.

Key Features:

• One-piece stainless steel drive spool for durability and corrosion resistance
• Reinforced composite high-impact housing protects internal components
• Quick response 5.0:1 gear ratio for improved maneuverability
• Total handle travel of 44.8 inches (161 degrees) from lock to lock
• 14.5-foot push-pull cable connects helm to outboard motor
• Rated for outboard engines up to 70 HP and jet drives up to 90 HP
• 16-inch lever length provides comfortable operation
• Complete kit includes helm, lever, mounting hardware, cable, and dress cover

The Model 870 has been developed to meet the increased demand for a mechanical steering system with quicker response characteristics. The interlocking shaft and lever design ensures a secure connection during operation. Note that for 4-stroke engines over 40 HP, the Ezy-Stik II Model 840 may be preferable due to increased torque feedback. All Ezy-Glide products meet or exceed NMMA/ABYC/BIA standards for marine safety and performance.
