when in doubt, break it out!! my steering cable broke, ended up replacing the entire helm with a morse helm/cable kit.had to break the old one :hammer2:
it says morse on it.and it has been real hard to steer the boat. I though that while I had it out i could see if lubrication helps or not. Like you said if I cant get it out ill cut it out with a die grinder.LOL
Thanks guys

Your helm may have studs on the backside of it that go through the dash. Look for them behind the dash. There should be 3 or 4 small(mine are 1/4") studs with nuts on them around the hole that the helm comes through.
