Could be Nydahl steering which is used in a lot of outboard race applications. It may look like the old cable steering from a jon boat but it works very well.

Yeah exactly. Our old 11' Boston whaler with a 25 had that same setup.....Teleflex special: 6 pullies, a wheel and some cable and you're good to go.

That steering is the only reason he can do that. You need good, tight steering, overpower, a very light boat, big trim, and it's not that hard.
