Mariner 28E Controls Conversion

Hey everyone,

I'm new to the forum but really like everyone's modifications! I just nearly completed a project in which I used some of your brilliant ideas. Pictures will definitely come up shortly.

I bought a Mariner 28E outboard motor to put on my 1960 Lonestar V-hull. Serial is 664 59102. My boat already has installed a steering wheel and control column with throttle and shift levers. The Mariner 28E has a tiller handle and shift knob on the side. I am trying to find a conversion to hook up my control column to the motor. I've been looking everywhere online but just can't quite figure it out.

Thanks for the help!!!

Anybody know where to start on hooking up existing control column to this outboard motor that has a tiller handle and shifter on the side?

If your motor isn't too old, your best bet would probably be to locate a NOS conversion kit for setting up the remote. If you can't find that, you'll have to get creative and fab something yourself or have it fabricated at a shop.
