Steering Helm and Cable

Transom assembly is shipped with the steering cable guide tube preset for cables with end
dimensions that comply with ABYC standards as outlined in the NMMA certification hand-
book. The steering cable coupler nut must also have a means of locking it to the guide tube
as specified in ABYC requirements.
Failure to use a steering cable locking device could cause loss of steering, which
could cause damage to the boat and/or injury.
All current production Quicksilver Ride Guide steering cables have a self-locking coupler
nut and do not require an external locking device. (Other cable manufacturers also make
cables with self-locking coupler nut.)
If using a steering cable that does not have a self-locking coupler nut, an external locking
device must be used.
