SeaStar Solutions Kicker Motor Steering Integration
When running a kicker motor alongside your main outboard, maintaining synchronized steering control is essential for trolling, fuel efficiency, and backup propulsion. SeaStar Solutions' kicker cable tie bar kits allow boaters to manually steer an auxiliary engine (kicker motor) using their existing SeaStar hydraulic steering systems, eliminating the need for separate steering controls and creating a seamless command experience from the helm.
The design incorporates SeaStar Solutions Xtreme cable as the linkage between the two engines, a patented technology that delivers the flexibility and durability required for demanding marine environments. These auxiliary motor steering systems are engineered specifically for compatibility with SeaStar front-mount hydraulic cylinders, ensuring reliable integration with the steering architecture already aboard thousands of recreational fishing boats and workboats.
Engineering Advantages of SeaStar Kicker Tie Bars
SeaStar's flexible cable design allows adjustable locations of the auxiliary engine (kicker motor), allows independent trim/tilt of both engines, and allows full steering stroke of both engines. This versatility means anglers can position their kicker motor for optimal weight distribution and performance without sacrificing steering responsiveness. The system maintains complete helm authority over both the primary and auxiliary powerplants simultaneously.
Installation is simplified using universal ABYC steering connection (as per ABYC P17 & P21 standards) on kicker motors, which streamlines the retrofit process and ensures compliance with marine industry safety standards. SeaStar Solutions offers multiple cable lengths—ranging from 16 inches to 44 inches—to accommodate various transom configurations and engine spacing requirements, giving boat owners the precision fitment necessary for clean, professional installations.
Built for Serious Anglers and Mariners
Tournament anglers and guides who rely on kicker motors for precise boat positioning during long trolling runs benefit from the durability and corrosion resistance built into every SeaStar auxiliary steering component. The Xtreme cable technology at the heart of these systems provides smooth, backlash-free operation even after extended exposure to saltwater, UV radiation, and constant adjustment cycles. For boaters seeking to maximize their vessel's versatility without adding helm complexity, SeaStar's kicker motor steering integration represents a proven, marine-grade solution backed by decades of steering system innovation.
