    Dear all
    I searched alot in the internet for a cat wheel steering via chain & cable,But the more I search,the more I got confused !!! I already checked edson website.

    Have a look at examples here:

    http://www.jefa.com/steering/steering.htm, also look at their downloads for Autocad drawings

    Good luck

    Thanks for the great links
    But still not clear how to link both rudders & the wheel in a traditional method
    (cables & chain & quadrant only) plus keeping both tillers for emrgency
    cheers
