We’ve recently released the 4.6L V8 300R FourStroke outboards featuring our Racing exclusive heavy-duty midsection fitted with a factory installed rear tie-bar mounting bracket.
The heavy-duty midsection comes with solid mounts and robust, forged transom brackets with single ram power trim and a remote trim pump designed to endure the harsh offshore environment. These models are available with the Sport Master gearcase.
The optional factory installed integrated rear tie-bar bracket enables the installation of a tie bar (an optional aftermarket part) for multi-engine performance cat and vee-bottom applications.
Select rear tie-bar models are available with side steering kits. Hydraulic steering cylinders mounted off the rear tie bar bracket – connect to the steering tube integrated within the transom clamp bracket assembly.
The optional rear side steer kits greatly enhance steering robustness. The tie-bar and rear side steering kit work together to enhance engine stability on high speed multiple engine applications.
Check out our Application Dependent to learn more about the various 300R midsection and gearcase options.
Hi,
we are the exclusive general importeur of Sea Ray, Boston Whaler and a few other motoryacht brands in Austria.
We are looking into a race project like this for our company. In Europe this type of boating is not as common as in the US.
Would be great if you could get in contact with us, to discuss some details and numbers.

Hello Bernhard. Are you saying you are interested in handling high performance sport boats such as the MTI featured on the blog post?
Rick,
What steering cylinder will be best fitted to the wing plate.
Or will previous cylinders from Imco or other like manufactures work?
Lastly would the cylinder be reusable from lets say a 300 xs or promax 300 in a repower application.
Thank you
Kyle,
The 300R steering system has different geometry than the legacy 300XS or Promax. Currently Zeiger is only company making the new cylinders for the 300R, but other companies such as Imco will offer them in the near future.

Hi,
Can we have the midsection with a double side steer (each side) for a single outboard application with a double hydraulic steering direction ?
I was with a double hydraulic steering with Capilano direction on my 300X, if i undestand well, i won’t be able to put them on the 300R ?
Thank you for your answer.
Leonard,
The 300R wingplate models are only available in either port or starboard configuration, single ram.
