Ok guys I'm having a brain freeze here! It's been 4-5 years since I restored my old pontoon and stupidly sold it and went back to camping. I recently bought a 1989 Landau 20'. It is in nice condition, floor,carpet,seats,bimini, and the force 50hp. sounds good and starts easy. The main problem is the steering,very hard to turn. So,like my old one, I'm going to replace the cable and helm. I can't remember how I did it. I bought the other one without a motor but I knew the steering was bad so I bought the new package from Iboats. I don't remember if I had the new motor on first or if I had the new steering on first?? Looking at this pontoon, it doesn't appear the big nut that tightens the cable on the motor will go through the aluminum hole(with gromet). So I'm not sure which end i need to start from, the motor end or the helm end. And will I be able to tie a rope to the old cable or tie the new cable to the old one? I just can't for the life remember what the heck I did??
Thanks for any help to this old boater!!
