Has anyone ever used a outboard boat motor steering set up on a rear steer?

Don't think it would be any where near big enough. Doesn't take much to turn an outboard so they're a small unit.

If you read on the page it is made for heavy outbords up to the 300hp ones.
I was thinking this would be good for a small light buggy.

mate you can push a 1000hp outboard to the side by hand...

Try turning the wheels on even a zook with the tyres on the ground by hand
