|
|
The boot where the steering cables enters the splash well is somewhat deteriorated on my boat. Any ideas on a durable replacement that doesn't require a major overhaul to install? |

Actually, I ordered a new one and just cut a slit into it as is shown on this Attwood picture and employed the same still functional gasket ring. Of course, this is another option and a great price. _________________ I am what I am & that's all that I am & there ain't no more.
