Damn steering

I opened up the boat yesterday, and discovered my steering problem from the end of last year. The port seal on the actuator was is leaking as evidenced by the puddle of hydralic fluid under it. I have to check through my paper work, but I hope the thing is covered. The boat is an 04, the steering is Sea Star by Teleflex, I would think 2 seasons is a short life for the part. I hope they stand behind it. The marina ordered a new part, about $500, and said about an hour of labor to install. Other than that boat is shiney and new, All electronics worked , I'm ready to go!

Make it idiot proof, and someone will make a better idiot.
