lHi Guys,
I have been remiss in not mentioning this eariler. The chain section of the Edson steering system supplied on my boat was two inches shorter that it should be. It enables the thimble and Nicro press fitting to come into contact with the teeth on the wheel drive sprocket which slowly cuts the steering cable. This resulted in a steering loss on Midnight Sun at a very bad time. (is there a good time?) All it takes to correct it is to get the next longer length of chain from Edson.
