this is the steering system - so no alternate cable option.  

I’ll look at Haven - I was up there for a bit when selling my previous boat.  Nice area.

Leslie Owen <kb3...@gmail.com>: Sep 10 12:03PM -0400 No. We are a Cabo Rico 34. Hull #2,   1989.   We spent 16 years on the Bay with Tango. You could also consider Haven Harbor in Rock Hall. We have had various levels of service wherever we've gone. We keep Tango in Daytona Beach. It's hard to get boat service there but we have eventually found what we needed. Have you called the Edson office? They may give advice.   Wishing you best of luck.   Leslie   Sent from my iPhone   On Sep 10, 2025, at 10:59 AM, 'cab...@aol.com' via caborico <cabo...@googlegroups.com> wrote:   I have an older 38 #19.

That said we had the exact failure years ago. It was repaired by Tolchester Marina. A bit north for you. Don't know if you wish to travel further. It seems one can be happy if the technician is one who cares about his work. And the disappointment can arise when one doesn't care.   Leslie   Sent from my iPhone   On Sep 9, 2025, at 1:11 PM, Geoffrey Ferrell <ge...@ferrell-madden.com> wrote:   Checking the Edson web site,   it is clear that this is a design flaw.

(luckily the pilothouse has hydraulic steering in the Pilothouse.) That was 2017, had it replaced in Hamptons.   Just found this re-failure (steering still functions but…) a couple of weeks ago. Looks like the overall radius is beyond the strength of the grease fitting. I think I could rig a support line to this plastic fitting that would force the strain out to the tubes themselves. BUT   $$ to get the thing replaced - I'm thinking this is beyond my abilities.   1. Any recommendations in the West River - Annapolis area?   2. Any random comments? :-)   Geoff   --   You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "caborico" group.   To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email to caborico+u...@googlegroups.com.   To view this discussion visit https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/caborico/2a72ebb8-8b0a-4db4-9c4b-7aab641dc364n%40googlegroups.com.   Back to top   You received this digest because you're subscribed to updates for this group.
