[QUOTE="turbotodd, post: 379475, member: 7376"] Welcome to the world of cable steered foot trolling motors. The cable is always in the way and it's either too long or too short. I haven't looked into one in a good while, but if it's just a Morse style cable, they can be had at any place that handles shifter and throttle cables for, like dragsters and that sort of thing. Jegs or Summit, or any of the little guys who deal with this kind of thing. Aircraft too I believe. If not a Morse style cable, perhaps a call or visit to a custom motorcycle shop could get you led in the right direction. Morse cables can't really be shortened, well that "could" theoretically be shortened (heck, they had to manufacture them?) but I don't know of a DIY way of doing it and it still be reliable. [/QUOTE]
