I have purchased a roll of stainless steering cable to resell. I had to buy 500' to get it. It's aircraft cable and is incredible to work with. I had been buying it from somebody in San Diego and he ran out and never replaced it. So I did, because once you do a boat in this stuff you will never go back. It is very tightly wound and it results in a very flexible steering cable that is smooth to the hand and bends like nothing you have ever seen in a cable. Your wrap around the quadrant is so easy and also the other end where you clamp.
I am selling for 1.50 a foot and you will pay shipping. The average flatbottom takes around 30 to 34 feet...so the investment is minimal compared to your other parts...lol

You can paypal me if that works or send me check or slide your card or send by pigeon or send it to my account in the Cayman's or you can call me Rajay or you can call me RJ...
I can get ready to ship like UPS and I can do that here at my desk and then text you a total and paypal or send me check...
And as for you Carl Campbell....how did you miss my misspell on roll...I'm so dissapointed in you as a human...
Why LOLYFE LARGE, yes it is available at wholesale...I've contracted with D21 Enterprises and he will be quite happy to sell it for 1.51 per foot to our accounts that we feel have a legitimate business license in the boating field...
I agree the stainless cable is the right choice, i used it on my Stevens last year. I chose stainless cable with the clear vinyl jacket. I used vinyl coated steel cable 20 some years ago on the same hull, and the vinyl had lost it's clear and became yellowed, but not cracked or unusable. I wondered then as now if the coated cable was "correct" for safety, what say y'all? I can't tell if RCL's roll is coated cable or not.
I don't wanna be my normal douche bag self...but honestly the coated cable is not right for the boat...it really is not the right thickness for the pulleys and other gear pertaining to the steering...I'm sure you will have other responses that mirror my thoughts......in fact in all my years around these sleds...I've only seen coated cable once.
Aircraft cable trivia: All legal aircraft cable have real fine mix colored nylon threads down the center core of the cable (1) identifying legal aircraft cable (2) Different color combinations reflect the manufactures color code, so the FAA has no trouble identifying the cable manufacturer if need be!
Thanks Spuds...I was told today by a retired guard dude that it was aircraft..it made sense to me but I was told it was from another industry that would have the same type of code for quality...but you have it in your Hallett and you know how nice it is...

My sled doesn't use "cable", but I always enjoy RCL's posts, as they always are "entertaining". :wink2::wink2:
