Hydraulic Steering Repair

[Water Rat]

Scott:
First off, congratulations to you your wife (boy or girl?). Having installed the Hynautic system on my boat myself, and since then dealing with similar issues, I would suggest replacing the entire length of hose unless it is clear that the hose failed to due flex or improperly installed fitting right at the fitting itself. I think I still have a bunch of high pressure hose and reusable fittings, along with the tool, mandrel, etc. to install them. If they are compatable with your system I would be happy to get them out of my basement.
