can anyone pass on some info on the pa14
i have a 2014 and did the 'h' rail update and everything went well,but my mate has the early version pa14 [does have the vantage seat] but when we put the new shafts in place we notice that they hit an internal bracket.
we also noticed that the old steering shafts were bent
can i just lenghten the shafts or is having 'h ' rails not an option for him

Taking a look at the serial number on the boat will help us determine what needs to be done to make this work. There's a number of PA's that fall into a certain "pre-steering-update category" that are less compatible with the H-Rail upgrade kit. However, with some modifications the kit can work. You can always go with a 9" or 21" straight H-Rail section for mounting h-rial accessories to.

I have a 2013 PA 14 that I installed the H-Rail on and had no problems. Not sure if it is the same metal bracket but I have one that the steering rod goes thru. Looking at doing the same H Rail upgrade to my wife's 2013 PA 12
