Abstract

A steer-by-wire outboard propulsion system comprising: a first portion for attachment to a boat, wherein the first portion is fixed about a substantially vertical axis, and a second portion connected to the first portion and configured to rotate about a steering axis, wherein the first portion comprises a sealed housing enclosing a member having a longitudinal axis relative to which it may move, and the second portion comprises a gear configured to engage with the member such that movement of the member relative to its longitudinal axis generates rotational movement of the gear about the steering axis to steer the boat, wherein the sealed housing comprises a sensor configured to determine the position of the member within the sealed housing to enable the steering direction to be monitored and adjusted electronically, and wherein the outboard propulsion system further comprises a manual override valve configured to enable the outboard propulsion system to be steered manually.
