ABSTRACT:
A racing boat is powered by a pair of pendent inboard-outboard drive units having inboard steering arms. A pair of push-pull cable units connect a forward located steering wheel unit to the arms. The cable units extend along opposite sides of the boat with the casing fixed at the steering wheel and the core wires secured to the opposite sides of the steering wheel and to the opposite steering arms. A power steering unit coupled to the one steering arm and having in input element. The adjacent cable unit has a threaded extension pipe with a fixed coupler connected to the power control input. A core rod is connected to the core, is slidably mounted in the pipe and is pivotally connected to the power steering link to transmit casing reaction forces to the power input. An adjustable rigid linkage includes a tie rod having adjustable ends pivotally connected to the anchor member on the extension pipes. The anchor member of the second cable unit is slidably mounted in a pivotally mounted support for generally linear movement. The rod directly interconnects the two anchor members to each other and to the power input for rapid power steering response. A second adjustable tie rod is pivotally connected to the arms and the core wires and is set to properly locate the steering arms.
