That's the type my brother and I replaced the cables on in an old beater
boat many, many years ago and got everything backwards.
Turn the helm right, the boat turned left. Turn the helm left and the boat
turned right.

Worked nice and smooth though, with the new cables and pulleys.

I think we drank Pabst Blue Ribbon back then which I suspect had something
to do with the failed project.


As I recall the wires have to come off the top of the steering wheel
drum instead of the bottom.
