I have a 1854 cc gator tail 37efi with hydraulic steering and when running wide open its hard to turn. I'm wondering if it's a weight distribution problem or hydraulic steering problem. I've found the best speeds are when I'm running 3900-4100 rmps but when turning it sounds like its cavitating. Think I may need more weight in the front of the boat but I'm not sure if this is the problem. Any info or advice would be much appreciated. |

Yeah I've heard the sea star would be better but I don't really want to spend the money right now to upgrade. Just wanted to make sure it wasn't a weight distribution issue before I thought about upgrading hydraulic steering. It's manageable for now just takes some effort to turn running wide open in bays. |

I'm not positive but I believe mine on my PD is Seastar and I've had zero issues with it whatsoever. To me it doesn't seem like weight distribution should make that big of a difference, something doesn't seem right there... |

It turns fine when at low speeds or trailered that's why I was thinking it was another issue. |
