Cable Steering vs Hydraulic Steering – Which is right for your boat?

Both systems have their place.

Cable Steering
• Lower initial cost.
• Great for smaller boats.
• Simple and reliable when maintained.

Hydraulic Steering
• Much lighter steering effort.
• Better control at higher speeds.
• Ideal for larger boats and higher horsepower outboards.
• Less steering feedback through the wheel.

If your steering feels heavy, stiff or has excessive play, it may be time for an inspection—or even an upgrade.

Thinking about upgrading your steering or not sure which system suits your boat? Get in touch with TK Marine and we'll recommend the best option for your setup.

What a day to be working by the water!
The TK Marine ute is out on the job today, but we’d be just as happy launching the boat and making the most of these conditions.

Regular servicing helps keep your Yamaha outboard reliable, efficient, and ready when you need it.

A proper service is more than just changing the engine oil. We also inspect key areas such as the fuel system, cooling system, water pump, gearcase oil, spark plugs, anodes, filters, and the general condition of the engine.

Winter is a great time to get maintenance sorted before the busy spring and summer boating season begins.

Need your Yamaha, or any other brand of outboard, serviced? Contact TK Marine in Taupiri to book in before the seasonal rush.

Upgrade Your Boat With a Trolling Motor

A properly installed trolling motor can make a huge difference when fishing, holding position, working along structure, or quietly moving through shallow water.

This recent install included mounting the motor securely, setting up the wiring correctly, and making sure the system was ready for reliable use on the water.

A tidy installation is important—not only for how it looks, but also for battery performance, electrical safety, and long-term reliability.

Thinking about adding a trolling motor, fish finder, chartplotter, battery system, or other electronics upgrade? Contact TK Marine to discuss a setup that suits your boat and how you use it.

Upgrade to Hydraulic Steering

A hydraulic steering upgrade delivers smoother, lighter, and more precise control of your boat.

- Effortless steering
- Improved handling and comfort
- Reduced steering torque and feedback
- Ideal for larger outboards and long days on the water

Whether you're upgrading from cable steering or replacing a worn system, hydraulic steering is one of the best improvements you can make to your boating experience.

Why Winter is the Best Time to Service Your Boat

Most people wait until the weather warms up before thinking about their boat. Unfortunately, that's also when workshops get busy and waiting times increase.

Winter is the perfect time to get on top of your maintenance:

- Avoid the spring rush
- Identify small issues before they become expensive repairs
- Keep your engine reliable and ready for summer
- Protect your investment during the off-season
- Hit the water sooner when the good weather arrives

Whether it's an annual service, repairs, insurance work, fibreglass repairs, or upgrades you've been putting off, now is the ideal time to get it sorted.

At TK Marine, we'll help make sure your boat is ready to go when the fishing, skiing, and family boating season starts again.

Book your winter service today and beat the spring rush, 0204 737 247
