Does any one know how easy or hard it is to add a second helm station
to a boat that has a hydraulic steering system. Is it easy as putting
a splitter in the hydraulic line?

Thanks Brian

My 25' Parker had a second helm station in a SeaStar hydraulic system.
There were special fittings inside the second helm, more like "pass
throughs" than splitters, and there was a third hose that served as a
way to bleed the lines, if memory serves. I have a booklet from
teleflex, part number 296221-e, that I downloaded from the teleflex site:
