Default Do large outboards need hydraulic steering?

Hi,
Prop torque seems to be a factor when turning my wheel. when I turn right,
and give it the gas, then it is hard to return the wheel back to left. My
engine is 90 HP, on 16 foot boat.

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
