Howdy,
I am in the process of restoring my 16' Alumacraft. It was purchased as a tiller model but I want to convert to console steering. I will be using a Merc Classic 50.
My question is about steering. I see Rack and Pinion and Rotary systems. Technically, I understand what a rack and pinion steering is, but I don't know what makes one better than the other in a boat application. I also see No Feedback systems (both rotary and rack), what does this give me?
Thanks in advance for your help.
