I LOVE this forum!, you guys are awesome. Thanks for all advice given. It looks like I'll have to shop around a bit. The thought of having this motor hit full lock at wot is terrifying. On a dual cable system (not pulleys) what makes it zero feedback? do they push and pull together or opposite? My father was a commercial long line and gill net fisherman in England, he lost steering at speed when the cable snapped and was almost thrown out of the boat. Scary stuff for sure. I had a 15' ?? many moons ago with a 115 merc on pulleys, had it as tight as possible, but at wot maybe 50-55 mph it would twist back and forth against the springs. Seems absolutely crazy now!

The yellow one is me and the green one is the wife after telling her the cost of hydraulics!
