I have a similar setup on my Searay. I have the Octopus drive to move the power assisted cable steering system. I am assuming that this is going to be installed on an I/O setup. Your main motor will be turned off while your kicker motor is running, you may have an issue moving your kicker since the octopus drive moves the I/O lower. With the main engine shut off the power assisted steering pump will not be on. Therefore, there is a lot of stress on the Octopus unit to move your main drive and kicker.
