I don't get that rap as I've not seen it? But I don't hold my wheels to lock/bypass either, as it serves no purpose in boat manuevering and is hard on the pump. Now do you want a polished tilt helm with that?? Twin drives or single, bar no bar? Hoses through the transom brackets or seperate hull fittings? How much for used off e-bay?? I tell ya, you write too many words, ya git in trouble, not enouph words, ya git in trouble..................... :D:D:D |

Another reason for hydraulic steering is to gaurd against gimbal ring breakage/loss of connection to the steering cable which is more common than straight breakage of the steering cable.
