    Duel steering cable or single steering cable?

    hey i have a skeeter boat with duel steering cable that is really hard to turn and was wondering if i should get a duel cable system or a single, because i read some single cable systems go up to a 150hp motor and that is the size motor i have..... if anyone has any idea let me know plz....

    Thanks

    Sounds like its time to replace the cables. Stay with the 2 instead of 1, lot safer. Some say you can lube the cables but if they have any rust in them safer to replace them.
