35 fountain throttles
 
Looking for a simple way to get my throttles on the right of me and further back. I can make molds to do so. But not sure if there is a "kit" for this. It's not SO bad throttling with left hand but they are set far forward and it's hard to stay put in the bulster while having to lean forward to throttle in the snot. It's a safty issue for me. If you have done this conversion please post some pics.

I can't believe that no one has ever done this before.

Look through the classifieds. I think I saw a 42 with throttles on the right

Yeah like that. I still think they are to far forward still. But it's a start. Also with this set up there would reduce any confusion between shifter and throttles . I may make a mold and put them on the side

Hardin sells a pod that can bolt to the side. Also there was a sick resto done on an orange beak that moved the throttles to where they belong

Working on a mold for throttles that will house the hatch switches etc and a cover plate for the shifters. Once it's made I will post pics. May not be till spring because I'm chiseling away at putting motors together and back in the boat. But this is a real safty concern for me. Not sure if anyone else feels this way. It will be a simple exchange when it is done.

I just looked. It says that it is not available

We are setting up the throttle housing just like the hustlers . Once we get the mold it is a easy build if anyone wants them.
