A Splashwell Kit Installation

(This is not my boat) This pic shows the kit at the left. The telescoping end of the steering cable is threaded through the support tube and is attached directly to the motor with a clevis kit. The connection of the motor end of the steering cable is threaded onto the end of the kit (out of sight starboard of the splashwell) The length of the support tube is adjustable so that it can be centered with the motor dead ahead and the wheel centered as well. this was a first for me and not sure how I would like it but now that I have dry fit it I am pleased. Not too expensive either and you save the cost of the connecting rod.
