Dual steering

[amarosa]

Hi there all. I have a 35 foot hartley 165hp volvo penta with flybridge owned now for 3 years. The flybridge was clearly added later and this is where the steering is. However there are still bits and pieces down below. I am hoping to be able to rig up dual controls so I can drive from down below or up top. Having trouble finding any diagrams about how to do this exactly or if even possible. Any thoughts you have would be great

What type of steering do you have hydraulic or cable?

The Vetus attachment explains this well, important to make sure helms have non return valves or seperate one is fitted, have you got an autopilot ? If you have, helm should have non return valve already.
