I have a 94 75 Yamaha 2 stroke I can steer the boat but for the most part its hard and at some points it pops like its skipping
Ayuh,.... Welcome Aboard,..... Is it well greased at the tilt tube at the motor,..??
It could be ya just need a new cable,.....
The skippin' feelin' is probably the worn out gears in the helm, from the bad cable, or lack of grease at the tilt tube,...
Is it a rotary helm, or rack, 'n pinion,..??
