Finally got new steering system in boat. Old 19′ with a 120hp. Did the no feedback system, ultraflex brand. Absolutely night and day.
Bit harder to turn, yes, but not bad. Trade off is when you take your hands off the wheel it’s not instant motor cranking to the left. Tubing around with kids is so much easier, trolling cranks, etc etc.
I was hesitant on price tag but happy I did it. Had a few stories last year of steering systems breaking and had more play than what I wanted in mine.
Sidenote, any putting new coils on, 2 out of the 4 CDI coils I put on new last year have gone out so far. Thank goodness local shop on vacation here had a couple used ones on hand.
