Zero effort controls
 
I have a poontoon boat (sold the Scarab & looking) and I want to put zero effort controls on it. What do I need? How much will it cost? I have a evenrude 115 etec motor on the poontoon boat.

Thanks
Bryan

I think there was a used set in the swap section and even a pod if you need it to mount.

72 bucks is a good price, but I need starboard mounted controls. Will I need all new cables?

How many do you need? I CNC'd a few years ago. Might have 2 laying around still, red anodiized. $40
Also, I have used 10/32" female heim joints. Just knock the pin out, and clearance out the back of the lever so it fits.

Do zero effort controls have an electronic assist or something?

Look up CP Preformance Marine

Not the older ones. I believe the new digital ones are fully electronic, no cables.
