Steering Wheel update: Gussi Italia Model 933

Post by snapshotgt »

Hi all --

The Gussi Italia model 933 with the cobalt center cap seems to be a popular steering wheel update for older boats (currently restoring a 2000 226). Unfortunately I have not been able to locate one.. eBay seem and Great Lakes Skipper seem to be popular places to buy from but unable to locate at either place.

Any recommendations?

Try this site. They have a phone number, and e-mail address for contact. They surely know where to find one, or something similar.

Good point, I didn't contact them after seeing their FAQ (below), but will give it a shot no matter!

Q: Can I buy a steering wheel direct from Syntec?
A: No. However, you can purchase a Gussi Italia® wheel directly from your boat manufacturer.

Shoot, bummer. I didn't see that, or I wouldn't have bothered posting the link. I hate it when vendors/companies do that, and won't sell directly to consumer.
