Try fixing it on your own first. If that doesn't work, then take it to the shop.

If you search on utube, I'm sure there are videos posted showing how to do it step by step.

Also try to determine the cause, if it's a cracked grommet guide that could be fraying the line or something else, that should be addressed as part of the repair.

Rudder line routing
Maybe this diagram will help you understand the routing of the steering lines...
Here’s a tip...I use my phone if I can’t fit my fat head in there to see it...

I did the same. I tried on my own but realised that if one popped I was likely to have another pop while on the water. I can't imagine I paid more than $75.

It’s 40 a line to have Fastlane repair it. My pa 12 has popped 3 lines since I bought it in 18’. Also just upgraded the rudder looking forward to seeing how it works! Rudder was 35bucks.
