I've got 3 boats with the Ezy-Glide steering on them at home with the oldest being about 45 years. Great if you live on narrow, snaky rivers like we have in South Georgia. This most recent system I ordered from Black Bear was for a friend in Puerto Rico who has been on my boats in Georgia and had never seen that kind of steering. I looked all over the internet and Black Bear had the best price and looked safer than some other retailers. Delivery was timely and now my friend has the Ezy-glide system on his 15' Boston Whaler running around the southside of PR.
