Back in the eighties we used hynautic and hydrive systems on race boats with out power assist.. they worked just fine P.S. the hydrives seemed faster to steer and had more options for helms
Dang i am startin to feel old just lookin at all the pics from back in the day, I will see if i can dig a couple of photos of the old Maverick boat I belive there was a couple of them on the circuit in the early eighties the husltler and one other one that I know of. Ed
