I would bet it is to keep the shifters in gear while running hard. I had to do the same thing on my Marine Machine controls and that was the main reason I switch to Livorsi controls.

You are correct sir! After some fact checking, it seems the boat history was; Falcon racing, Accurate marine, Sonic hedgehog, then Snakeman Racing. Ocean outboard was the cut down 36 triple outboard.
Thanks to Ronnie Rossie for clearing that up for me! He had some fun letting me twist in the wind for a while on that one! Thanks buddy!

If anyone out there has any photos of Falcon Racing 36 skater It would be appreciated. I checked with Freeze Frame and they couldnt locate any, I know it raced under Falcon somewhere mid-nineties.

Hey DM
I believe you were working with Latham Marine? They sell the bezel, adaptor plate that will allow the use of any wheel 5 or 7 bolt pattern. You can have the bezel anodized in any color. They stock black.
Hope this helps

UPS brought me a big box from Livorsi today, big thanks to Bill at Diamond Performance Marine... That was quick service.
Now I've got fun stuff to do on dash.

The cutting wheels are to big to get very close so you are left with a few inches that are impossible to get at and contain very thick overlaps of Kevlar. I got around this by taking a carbide hole saw (without the drill bit in it to minimize the risk of catching the outside laminate) and poking a inch and a half hole in each corner then joining all the holes with a standard seven inch carbide wheel on a Metabo cutter. (Metabos kick azz!)

not pretty . . . . .
