I agree with whalerman. Last weekend I drove my boat 60 miles round trip on Lake Michigan and with the NO-FEED BACK steering I have (Teleflex BW factory installed) I could set a course and join my son up on the front fore-deck pad for several minutes at the time.
Yes I know not safe seamanship but boy did she run much nicer over the chop at 5000 rpm with my 250 lbs up front instead behind the CC.
I love the (NO)feel of this steering system as you don't constantly have to correct you course going straight or in a turn.
