Converting from single control to dual stick controls?
Hi all,
I'm thinking of converting my sigle stick control to a dual stick control on our Baja Islander.
One,
has anyone done this?
Two,
this is a side mount that will be coming off so a side mount/pod system will be needed.
Three,
Any suggestions?
I found this unit for sale but was wondering if there was a little different/cheaper set up?

The unit above looks very nice but its a bit more than I really want to spend at this point.
Thanks in advance

the problem with building a box to mount the normal ones is the angle you would have to have your cables coming out at to no be a complete eyesore. at least not any uglier than the random box just hanging on the side of the boat.

I MAY have to spend the LONG dollar in the future to get what I am looking for. (as much as I hate too)
Thanks for chiming in though, I greatly appreciate it.
You never know, someone might have already done what I'm looking to do with something a little different for le$$ than the Dana set up.
