New boat - stiff steering

[BearLakeFishGuy]

Mine was very stiff too and it was due to moisture (rust) in the cable. I removed it and cleaned it, but had the same problem. I changed the cable (myself) and it was pretty easy to do. A new cable cost me about 75 bones from [url "http://www.overtons.com"]www.overtons.com[/url] I have a 16' aluminum boat with a 35hp motor and steering wheel. The best thing to do is remove the cable and then compare the end fittings you have to those in a catalog or on line. They typically tell you how to measure the cable for a perfect fit on the replacement.
