Steering Systems for Outboard, Inboard, Sterndrive, and Water Jet Drive Boats
This standard applies to remote mechanical cable steering systems used with single and twin engine installations of outboard motors over 20 horsepower per engine, inboard, sterndrive and water jet drives. The outboard engine steering system requirements are for two types of steering systems with respect to the attachment at the output end: engine-mounted steering system, and boat-mounted steering system.
