I just bought my first bass boat, a 1989 Stratos 285 PF with a 150 hp Evinrude XP V-6. I got it out on the water for the first time this past Tuesday, and found that the steering is very very stiff. It takes almost everything I have to turn the wheel. I'm assuming that from reading other posts on the forum that I will need to replace the steering cables. It is currently equipped with a Rack and Pinion system, but I've seen recommendations to switch over to a rotary system. How difficult of a job would it be to make this switch? Also, while I'm at it, how difficult would it be to install a fish finder on the bow if there is no wiring already in place for one? The boat only came with a Humminbird LCR 4000 on the console that doesnt work, so I am looking into replacing that one, and adding a second unit to the bow. Thanks for the help guys!
