Only a Cajun????
 

I wouldn't have thought of this.............This is a Good idea for what to do if you have a tiller and want remote steer...........I came across this in Abbeville.........sorry it's kinda blurry, as I was taking the photo I realized there were hornets pouring out of the hull!!!

LOL, you can do the same thing, but you don't have to do it externally.
They are made for that already.

LMAO he wasted alot of time and effort

Y'all are going to hurt Dink's feelings.....He was impressed..:D

Yeah I'm impressed!! This old man did this himself!! He said, I don't need no stinkin high dollar mechanic.....I make my own stuff

Sorry,could not help myself :*****: After a day of being around boats and motors all day I needed a good laugh.

some of the older motors had the shift and throttle on the outside just like that. mostly omc's

I had that same motor years ago and thats how they came from the factory.

Man! Y'all beating poor ol Dink to pieces!:*****:

I have an 1985 johnson 35hp tiller and it has the shift and throttle on the side it even has the threads on the outside to install the old cable and pulley steering.

^^^all of the old smaller johnson/evinrudes are done just like that, and thats the manufactorer's way its not rigged up just the only way to do it..not enough room to hook the cables under the hood of the smaller cowlings...

yamaha still does it. when they made the 25 2stroke if you bought it as a tiller and then wanted to convert it to controls they sold a kit that bolted on the outside. im sure they still sell the kit cause they just stop making those 2stroke 25's
