Default Do large outboards need hydraulic steering?

I have a 16ft Bass boat with a 150 Merc. No problem steering at all.

I am thinking of buying a Lund with a 150 or 200 hp 4 stroke. The

dealer
opinions on the necessity of hydraulic steering seem to be based on

what
they have in stock.

I am interested in any real life experiences with larger engines
with/without hydraulic steering.

Thank you



Lund 1775 with 115, cable steering. If the trim isn't correct it takes
a little force. perfectly acceptable.
