Finnegan, thanks for that heads-up. I will have a chance to work on the boat again this weekend. I will get as much information about the helm installation as possible and then contact TeleFlex (probably your dealer since they worked out great for you) about my options.

I just noticed a sticker on top of the cover so who knows what it really is. Hopefully I can get some information off the back of the helm assembly. With this boat's uncertain history it probably would not hurt to remove it and have it checked out as well.
