Jeff i've had stick on 3 boats, but never on anything over 25 hp. i loved mine. DJC he means Ezy-Glide stick steering. teleflex cable with a stick for control.

I had stick on a 15' Fisher aluminum jon/bass boat with 25hp. I liked it alright, but wouldn't want it on a more powerful/faster boat.

Re: stick steering?

you don't say what engine you have, and what style steering, and which model. makes me wonder if you have the right steering system for the motor. there are several different styles for 40hp and below up to 75 hp. 830 840 870etc. google ezy-glide stick steering.

I have a stick steering 28hp 1993 model and it's smooth as silk. I love it, I wouldn't want anything but stick steer! It's awesome to be able to run and fish without having to get up, all controls and trolling motor at your fingertips. Now how cool is that?
