Don, Your boat has the same engine control as mine. It was a control made specifically for C because the engineers at C didn’t like the idea of the control cables for the engine running inside the pedestal, fearing they would possibly foul on the steering gear. It is either an Edson 737 or

Don, I have replaced both the shifter and the throttle cable on my C (Edson pedestal) Disconnecting the cable from the levers is probably the easiest part of the job. The two big issues I ran into were: 1. The cables are strapped to the rear of the pedestal via a special clamp. If you have an
