Re: Stus-List Not shifting fwd to reverse Have you tried disconnecting the 
cable at the gearbox and shifting into gear using only your hands?  Generally 
gearboxes (other than mechanical boxes on A4s or Paragon boxes) will snick in 
and out of gear with very little effort.  If the cable is antique(as in the 
original cable for the boat) go ahead and buy a new one, same length as the old 
one before it breaks or the gear shift on the pedestal breaks.  Since the 
cables use a solid rod inside the cable housing, wear will occur wherever the 
cable makes a bend.  It is undetectable to the eye and it will make the gearbox 
increasingly harder to put in gear.  If the boat won’t engage in either forward 
or reverse, I’ll put my money on the cable or the cable holder inside the 
pedestal shifter as the offending part.My Landfall 35 has a shift mechanism at 
the pedestal that Edson stopped making in the 80’s with no replacement parts.  
Same Hurth V drive on the 3HM Yanmar. Keeping the gear shifter functional saves 
me from a huge pedestal refit job.Chuck Gilchrest S/V Half Magic1983 35
