Hi All.
I'm running a 200Hp merc V6 on my 18ft bowrider.
i have a "non hydraulic" system on the outboard at the moment. really tough to turn some times and get a lot of torque steer at lower speeds.
got a scare a few weeks back when i hit someone elses wake at a pretty high speed and the steering was ripped from my hands and the boat just took off left. Scared the cr&p out of me and unsettled my passengers.
i want to replace the system with one that will elminate the torque steer and keep pointing where i put it. I'm not looking for power assisted.
was thinking hydraulic but they are really pricy. Came across the Cable no feedback system from Teleflex which is a fraction of the price.
Is this cable NFB system any good or i should I sell a kidney and buy the Hydraulic system?
thanks, Keith
