Suitable helm replacement??

[gofish]

Just got finished replacing my helm and cable. Wasn't too bad at all. I was a little worried about unbolting/moving the motor but that went just fine. My buddy has a boom (crane) truck for his outdoor advertising business so we used that instead of an engine hoist. I can't really comment on how it would be w/ no hoist/lift, but just a board under the skeg. I would say if you're going to do that you would want to have three people present.
Thanks to all for the great advice, now I just have to wait for the wind to calm down some and it will be back to grouper slaying for the ole v20.

Basically I did an exact replacement of what I had before. Uflex ROTECH system. It ended up costing $135 shipped from boatstoreusa.com. It came w/ a new steering wheel as well, but I chose to use my old wheel.
I am planning on adding a grease buddy nut to it soon, maybe I'll get some pics of that.

starting mine in a couple of hours, at least it's good weather to work on boats & not good enough to go out in them:) see ya at the ramp.
