Shifter control recommendation?

Can anyone shed any light on shifter preference? I see Gaffrig, Latham and Livorsi. They all kinda look the same to me. Looking at one similar to the pic I posted, for single engine V.

Thanks for the advice.

Latham are far better than livorsi from my experience.

I had about the same shifter you do on my boat and replaced it with a Gaffrig shfiter myself and love it, had to buy new cables (bout 100 bucks) all in all it was fairly easy, much nicer than the stock one. took a bit getting used to the Gaffrig when docking, but after that, all's good!

great, thanks for the response. Did you change cables because of length?
