An apparatus is for supporting a marine drive on a marine vessel. The apparatus has a transom bracket comprising a swivel cylinder and a steering bracket configured to couple the marine drive to the transom bracket, the steering bracket comprising a steering arm and a swivel tube seated in the swivel cylinder, wherein steering of the steering arm relative to the transom bracket rotates the swivel tube in the swivel cylinder and thereby steers the marine drive. A copilot device is configured to frictionally restrain rotation of the swivel tube in the swivel cylinder by applying diametrically opposing pushing and pulling forces on the swivel tube.
