Default Throttle controls

I need to replace my controls on the boat...rather I want to. Currently the boat has the classic Morse controls. The boat original had twin motors and when it was switched to a single the control was never changed (the previous owner used the second lever to run his 25 hp kicker)

I was going to replace with a mercury control with the trim in the handle.....

But I think the single control Morse would be pretty neat to use also (I would need to dash mount a trim switch though....
I think this control would really give the boat some character...and I could use it when the new motor shows up.... I think

What do you think??

Thanks Miles

I also like how it looks and I know there are several variations on the housing (round , square etc)...get rid of the plastic shift knob and put on a brushed aluminum one NICE!!! [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

I just refreshed that link to the mercury control as it timed out for some reason.....Funny thing is that when I first posted this it was $258 when I went back just to grab the pic it was $232...Thats interesting
