I am switching from cable steering to hydraulic steering in my 201 stratos my question is do I get the same length hoses as my cables were or are the a different length?

Add 2'.
Ok thanks Fatshaft
Depending on the system, it may come with long hoses that are cut to fit. But, since it is a 201, it likely is powered by something larger than 149hp. Only the bay star stuff has the cut to fit tubing and they are made for less than 150hp use.
Yes it has a 250 E-tec I need the seastar pro system
I always run them past the motor, then loop them back to allow adequate stress loops. The steering actuator has to slide back and forth. You'll have to drill a bigger hole for the helm, screw a piece of wood to cover the old hole, find the center, use a hole cutter to cut the old hole bigger.
