Graham, Did you happen to have an atomic 4 with reduction drive as well. Mine is very difficult to put in and out of gear. I have a 12" bilge pump lever on it and requires an enormous amount of force. Folks on my boat under 150lbs can't really get it in/out full gear. I will be changing the cable at the same time so hoping that helps. I've been told it does need lots of leverage, just by design. Just don't know what the right amount is - it seems too much.

I owned an 1980 Aloha with this setup. You might be able to find one e-bay or one of the big consignment shops, or you could retrofit the more common lever setup to the pedestal but that would be $$$.
