So I have a boat that I installed a 1985 Evinrude 90 hp on. The problem is, the previous owner had a mercury with dual steering cables and the Evinrude only uses one. Last season I simply used one cable and let the other one rock and roll in the bildge area. I was thinking about removing the extra but was concerned as to whether I would need to make major mods to the rack and pinion system or could I just pop one out and leave the other in place?
