I had sea-star hydraulic steering on my Enticer, and a 135hp on the back. I wouldn't drive a boat with cable steering full stop - let alone being 40% overpowered.
Your confidence is concerning. I echo YF's post above.
I don't have any intention of driving full power until I get a decent steering setup on it. I also don't have any intention of not driving it until I get a different steering set on it. I just needed a motor on it to be able to go on vacation next month and finish the summer up. Its on there. The 225 may not stay on there and I'm not going to invest a thousand dollars on a hydraulic steering setup until I'm sold on the 225. When I get a more stable steering platform on it I'll think about running it past 60 but ultimately I'm the one who decides how fast the boat goes and I'm pretty good at not doing things I don't need to do.
The kill switch is easy enough and will get done asap.
