I hit a stump or log while boating on the river today. Afterwards I had steering issues. It wouldn't turn very well and was not responsive at all. I was able to manually turn it, but using the wheel it was not fully operable. When I got back, I was able to grab some goggle and take a look. There appears to have been two steering stabilizers that were sheered off when I hit that thing. I am not exactly sure what they are called. I tried looking in my manual and couldn't find them. I can't really take any pictures, since it is all under water. I would really appreciate it if someone could tell me what those "stabilizers are actually called" or if anyone knows were to buy replacement parts. Thanks in advance.
