Default 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.

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