If you’re a common sense person, you probably don’t feel you have a home in this world right now. If you’re a Christian, you know you were never meant to.

Whoa. That'll pucker the sphincter. It's amazing they weren't hurt.

I wonder which happened first...the steering breaking, or him catching the boat's keel on that wake, causing the boat to hook...thereby breaking the steering?
I'm betting it was the 2nd one.

Or some jackazz loosen it. High performance Bass boats have dual steering to prevent this. Had it happen while running thru standing timber on TBend yrs ago. wasn't going that fast and didn't get slung out. Partner had to hug the 150 and steer it the rest of the way to the docks. Loc nuts don't come loose.Not helping someone will get you some jail time in TEXAS ! The kill switch saved their azzes, without it boat would have circled and probably hit one of them.

This happened right in front of me and when I turned around to ask if he was okay he told me he hit the wake wrong and was trying to trim down and lost it. They was both shook up but they was both okay. This was right at blast off we hadn't been on pad 5 minutes. Bankhead, did this happen this past weekend when yall were fishing seminole? If so they are very lucky it happened where it did and there were no stumps to get thrown out on top of. As I'm sure you saw when you take off headed south from the boat basin in Bainbridge in some spots there are patches of stumps right next to the channel. When we had our club tournament Sunday I heard one of the guys say that there were 2 lower units knocked off and 4 blown motors.

I have never liked the hydraulic steering on my boat. You have no feedback through the wheel like you have with cable steering. It took me a while to get comfortable with it at higher speeds.
I don't ever plan on going back to cable steering. Love my hydraulic. I think the whole "feeling the feedback through the wheel" is highly overrated.
