The wood knob cracked and broke off. I'm not really sure on the names of the different parts though. I am trying to figure out if the whole arm needs to be replaced or if the knob can just be replaced. Also how would I go about getting a new steering wheel. The wheel has broken from one of the three spokes and the other two I'm sure will go soon.
BTW Ron I spoke with you on the phone about two years ago about some issues I was having with this boat. I forget what the exact issue was (one of many) but your advice helped. After 1 year of rebuilding the engine and 4-5 years of fine tuning, three different mechanics, and very limited amounts of good ski/wakeboard days during that period she is finally running very well. Thanks for the help! Can't wait to get her out on Raystown lake in PA this summer. One of the best lakes I've ever skied/wakeboarded in the Northeast, very few boats on a huge lake especially on the outer edges, even on weekends! Probably because there are no houses on the lake, just a two or three campgrounds and marinas and a small handful of ramps. I'd recommend it to anyone that doesn't live to far.
