My boat came back from mechanic (since out of business) and it steers backwards (steer right it goes left, and vice versa)! Twin inboard outboard bravos. I've been reading posts but need help. Any advice on how I can fix?

If it is a rack system, the rack is mounted upside down at the helm. BTDT. Need more info. What steering system do you have.

What was the boat at the "Mechanic's" for?
So when you turn the Wheel to Port, does the outdrive pivot so the prop end goes to Port or to Starboard?

It was in for one Engine work.
I'll check today which way outdrive pivots when I turn wheel to port. Stay tuned and thank you

Unbolt the rack from the helm

Unbolt the helm and rotate it 180

Reinstall helm

Bolt rack back on
