ABSTRACT:
A steering apparatus for a boat, comprising a steering wheel, a rudder and a push-pull control cable layed between former two, wherein a connecting device, of the push-pull control cable and a steering mechanism on the side of the rudder, comprises a cable cap fixed to a conduit of the push-pull control cable, a guide pipe provided in said steering mechanism, an adjusting nut adjustably engaged to said cable cap and a semi-box nut having an annular bottom to be used for connecting the cable cap and the guide pipe by catching the adjusting nut on the cable cap and simultaneously being engaged to a male-threaded surface of the guide pipe. The adjustment of the effective length of the conduit of the push-pull control cable is easily achieved by the selection of an axial position of the adjusting nut.
