Removing panels is not the issue, it's the getting to the general area of the rack and removing everything in the way and these boats are of poor design for performing...

    Removal Morse Control Helm Question

    Sorry for being so wordy, I'm originally from the UK and we sometimes explain things differently and can put people to sleep. My whole thinking is there is something loose in the helm especially around where the little gear is secured to the shaft that would explain the whole thing. Maybe a...

It's a Morse Helm and the wheel moves quite freely around 3 inches then comes up hard against the cable then solid movement against the...

    Replacement steering cable.

    Thanks, the boat is in storage but will check for the part number once I have access. Was trying to find the average cost of a helm and cable, was told by tech that the most common length for my boat would be 17 feet but will check before I buy. Any suggestions where I can find what manufacture...
