Thank you for an excellent and easy to follow, step by step instructive session - it made my experience an easy, yet tedious affair as I work alone.

Thank you so much for letting me know as I’m not always sure if I said or showed enough for people to be able to get the job done. This means a lot to me. All is going extremely well in this part of the woods as we’re on our way out of lockdown and I was able to get out on the water again this weekend and do what I love most. Keep safe mate and looking forward to hear back from you in the future.

Having watched all your videos now, I must say it's a real shame that you didn't do a full documentation on the complete boat build. You've done some amazing work and it's a shame that it's all relegated to a 6 minute video. Your episodes on the actual builds of the fuel sender, light bar and steering setup show what might have been a great build project that was documented from beginning to end. In addition to the actual boat build, I would have loved to see videos on the console build and especially the addition of the throttle controls much like you did with the steering.

laserguy Hey man. Yeah I'm so disappointed that I didn't do a video documentary of everything from the start. I took photos of everything since the start but it does not justify all the work that has gone into building everything. If you search for me on FB Jonathan Jvv I'll friend you and then you can check out my boat build album. Every photo is in there. In regards to the throttle control that will be one of my next videos. It is temporarily mounted on the console but not connected to the control cables and motor electronics yet. I will also be doing another video soon of how I did the anti slip on my boat, so easy and really cheap. I also have another chill box from a friend that needs fibreglassing so I will also do video on how to fibreglass too. Thanks again for watching and following my videos. Greatly appreciate it. 👍

Easy to understand. I saved it for the job I'm about to do. One thing. Your measurement for the length of the cable. Instructions that I have seen say to add an additional 6". Then round off to the nearest foot. Adding inches to the nearest foot. More is better than less.

I’m a electronic Security technician by trade so I found a round piece of rubber from a camera bracket that had a hole in the centre for the camera cable to go through. I had to drill it out a little bit bigger for the steaming cable to fit but it worked an absolute treat and seals of that hole really well. Otherwise silicon would probably Also do the trick.

Good info for new beginer like me

Good video. I am converting my 20hp to this type steering. Its is currently a hand tiller. As far as the steering arm goes did your motor already have one on it? Because the kits I've looked at do not have it included. Any suggestions on where to find one? Thanks.

Hello you, I am from Vietnam, can you show for me how to buy this boat steering system?

Thanks for this video! Have an old 1970s 16' Caribbean with steering wheel on the front right. It has holes for steering cables on both sides of the outboard near the Transom. SHould I use the old holes pulling cables from both sides or use the system featured in your video where the cables enter from one side only and glass up the old unused hole. Very new to boating as you can probably tell by the noob question but not new to fixing things so any help would really help me in Melbourne. Love your shows and have placed this one on a play list. Thanks, this video and others are invaluable.

Thanks for the comment and kind words. It sounds like your boat might have or had an old rope steering system that would have pushed and pulled the motor from both sides. This would mean that at the back of steering there would be some spiral thread where the rope would have run in and if you were to replace the system you will have to replace steering wheel as well. I’m not a big fan of the rope steering system and personally would replace it with the cable system. You’d just have to make sure the motor has the fitting where the cable shaft slides through the motor as seen at the end of this video.

Is there a free play type adjuster in these type of cables usually?

Well done

Good video, thanks

thank you, top notch

Nice video. I guess you have enauph slack when you mesured your cable to compensate for the difference in height. I mean the cable has to come down to the floor and up, that must add a little more length ?

@FishingAdventuresHB

6 жыл бұрын

Martin Legare yes deffinately. As you can see I measure across to the up from the floor to the control then acros to the Gunnel then up from the floor again to the gunnel then to the back and then also leaving enough slack at the motor so the motor can turn. Ended up with 20ft cable for a 16ft boat. Rather have to much slack than to little.

Greetings, hoping you can clarify on this: when you're ready to begin feeding the cable into the helm (gearbox), how do you determine which way you feed the cable and turn the wheel? Is it fool proof (does it only feed one way)? Do you risk feeding cable the wrong way or turning the wheel the wrong way resulting in the boat turning opposite of the way the wheel is turning? I'm at this point in my install, and I don't want to screw this up. Thanks.

megasonify good day. There should be only one obvious entry point. Normally there would be some sort of clip or cut out where the end of the cable would slot into. Another way of knowing is when you insert the cable turn the steering clockwise and it should pull in not push out. That way you know your in the correct side. Turn all the way till it stops and then give it a hard pull until you here it click into place. Insert the clip to hold it in place. Now When turning the steering left the cable should push out and right it should pull in at the motor end. Hope this helps.

I just bought new steering cable from boat shop and guy threw in a helm for free..it was slightly used ..i went to install it..everything went well til I realized the cable would not stay in to the helm..it did not have a pin with it..i am wandering if the helm i got requires a pin to lock it in place?? If so what kind of pin? I will add a photo here if I can of helm..it does look like it has a groove inside for a possible pin.

Hey mate so 1st of all the steering cable on my boat clicks in and stays in place even without the pin. I just had to turn the steering all the way to the right till it pulled the cable housing into the helm. Then with one hard turn on the steering it clicks into place and stays there. I’ve posted pictures on my Facebook page for you of what the connection and pin looks like for the housing.

Sounds like the steering cable is starting to freeze up. Start by checking that there are no major bends or cracks in the cable housing. Then grease the rod that goes through the motor. If that doesn’t work you might have to remove the cable and by using spray oil you can try and re lube the inside of the cable by spraying the oil into the end that attaches to the steering and working it in by pulling the cable as far out as it will go then spraying oil then pushing it in as far as it will go until the oil has worked its way through the cable to the other end.
