Hi, I have an 18' center console with a 1999 Johnson 115 outboard. My steering cable snapped tonight, luckily at slow speed. I had to turn the engine by hand to get back to the dock. The cable is marked: MORSE 304411-000-0180.0 7989. Obviously Morse is the brand and I believe 304411 is the model of the cable but I am not sure what the other numbers mean and I am having a hard time finding a replacement. Any help with the cable or tips on replacement are appreciated. Thank You

So after some research I discovered that the 304411 is the model of the cable and the 180 is the length in inches. Most manufacturers now specify the length in feet but Morse was the one that did so in inches. So in my case, this is a 15 foot cable. This is for a Morse Command 290 helm also.
