We had a cable break whn we were coming in from bull island trying to out run a storm. My buddy sat on the transom and grabed the motor and i ran throttle shouting out stright,left more, now stright and so on. This was about 3 in the afternoon and it was almost pitch black outside and lighting all over the place.the icw was two to three. We made it to isle of palms and docked there. Now i have hyd steering so much better!! Bight the bullett!

Well..........one time while landing on the moon, we over shot and risked fly by........
So, I dropped the anchor, and although it dragged for 1/4 mile, it eventually stopped our boat.......... I mean space craft.

Going hydraulic..........that's right......hydraulic.
And maybe while I'm at it.........swap out the 200 HO for the 557 hp outboard. Figure should run 75 mph...maybe more. That's my cousin........" he's got the fastest boat in the whole D county" !!! ( name the movie ? )

Ran with the hydraulic steering 1st time Saturday, and can report:
1. Eliminated torque steer - even when turning from start and accelerating together. 2. Holds course much better, no tendency to turn to starboard. 3. More turns of the wheel full right to left........no big deal but may add the knob on wheel.
