STEERING SYSTEMS & CONTROLS

Safe, responsive steering is one of the most important aspects of enjoying your inflatable boat, yacht tender, or rigid inflatable vessel around Clearwater and throughout the Tampa Bay area. At Suncoast Inflatables, we provide comprehensive steering system services and high-quality controls to keep your boat handling exactly the way you expect on the water.

Complete Steering System Services

Whether you’re upgrading your helm, repairing worn components, or just want smoother control on the water, our certified technicians have the knowledge and experience to get the job done right. We work on a full range of steering systems used in inflatable boats — from traditional mechanical setups to more advanced hydraulic systems — and ensure controls are tuned for both performance and safety.

What We Service & Repair

  • Mechanical Steering Systems – Cable-driven systems that link your helm to the outboard for precise, reliable control.

  • Hydraulic Steering Systems – Smooth, low-effort steering ideal for larger inflatables or higher horsepower applications.

  • Steering Cables & Helm Components – Inspection, adjustment, and replacement of cables, helms, steering wheels, and more.

  • Throttle & Shift Controls – Ensure all control stations operate smoothly and safely together.

    Experienced boaters know that steering isn’t just about turning the wheel — it’s about confidence and control every time you head out. Whether your inflatable is used for cruising, fishing, tender duty, or watersports, we make sure your steering systems respond predictably and precisely.
