You are likely right about the steering...I have always preferred cable. I may be able to reuse the steering from the Johnson but I haven't got to check it out yet. It is missing the steering wheel so that does make it tough to turn! The seastar is in good shape but I would need longer hoses so either way I am going to be spending something.
I might have to give that solas 4 blade a try...the prop on the motor now was pushing a really light boat and looks to have a lot of pitch. I have no experience with 4 blades.
I hope to get started stripping the boat down next weekend. Thanks for the suggestions guys! I appreciate it.
