Seastar Hydraulic Boat Helm Pump - Rebuild

Seastar Hydraulic Marine Boat Helm Pump (REBUILD SERVICE ONLY)

Background:

• Over an extended period of time, boat helm pump shaft seals begin to fail, causing steering fluid to leak.
• Not all helms are rebuildable, for example if the helm is rusted, corroded, or has holes in it. You can send in your helm for inspection, and if it is not rebuildable there is a $40 fee for our techs time. We will give you the best option for a replacement and that $40 can be applied to a new helm if you wish to do so.

Looking For a New Helm?

• Most SeaStar helm pumps are still available for purchase or at the very least there is a similar replacement. See our SeaStar Helm Pump page for more information.
