WELCOME Terrica !!!
Two days after we got our V20, the mechanical gearbox broke. I installed the same one ( Original Teleflex brand I believe, "there are cheapy ones", and it has worked flawesly for two years and many many uses every w.e. Don`t hesitate to ask us questions, we will tell you all the tricks we have learned. I have a Yami 200 2 stroke, and I love it. Juan

So your cable did not break, just the actual hub (helm) assembly at the wheel. Good to know, I'll take that apart before I order a new cable. The hub is cheaper than the replacement cable. Telflex is the good one, not something to go cheap on.

most of teh time you can get both the helm and cable for just a little bit more than either one separately. I allways recomend replacing both, unless there was a particluar reason either is replaced. You might want to check inot a no feed back steerign system, its not as nice as hydraulic steering, but its close. Hydraulic is teh way to go if you have the $$, its not exactly cheap, but its worth every dime once you start using it. Check with ebasicpower.com and iboats.com for parts

Go Hydraulic if your boat bux allow!!...Teleflex NFB works pretty well if hydraulic is too much $$...

Welcome to the madness!! My wifes family is from Halifax!
Replace the whole steering this way you know what you have, and as said it is cheaper that way. Go NFB unless you have $$$ for Hydraulic. Fish Finder was installed by one of the last owners. My boat was from the 70"s and had no pumps so I am no help there. and I also don't pulll anything but fish lines so ski wil have to come from another. Good Luck O Yea
