Well, as I'm looking for some winter projects before the baby comes along and zaps all my time, I need to replace the steering cable on my '97 Sport. I dropped the rudder out earlier in the year, regreased this and the cable end which made a significant difference. The boat has sat for a month or 3, and the last time out the steering was tight again (only in one direction) so my guess it's time for a new cable. If I go to cirrect Craft direct in the UK it will cost an absolute fortune so was hoping to get one sent over from the US (even with our now crappy exchange rate it should still be cheaper). Anyway, if somebody would be kind enough to advise the correct length and throw, I'd appreciate it.
Cheers,

The cable you need is Correct Craft specific, so you'll need to get it from a dealer. Teleflex does not sell it to anyone else, and you cant buy it direct.
Check to see if White Lake will ship overseas:

Because SkiDIM doesnt carry the Correct Craft specific cables... they are a dealer-only item.
