A steering system for a boat includes an auxiliary rudder which is rotatable to effect changes in course of the boat. A servo-pendulum rudder is rotatable by a positioning device. When the servo-pendulum rudder is rotated, it is pivotal transversely to a keel line of the boat by water flowing past the boat. A drive connection is provided between the servo-pendulum rudder and the auxiliary rudder. The drive connection includes a drive member and a driven member. One of the driving and driven members is pivotal between an engaged condition in which the drive connection is effective to transmit force between the pendulum rudder and the auxiliary rudder and disengaged condition in which the drive connection is ineffective to transmit force. The drive and driven members may be provided with teeth which are disposed in meshing engagement when the one of the driving and driven members is in the engaged condition.
