I just bought a bass boat with a 2001 f100 four stroke outboard and my plan is to swap motors out with my 88spl on my 21 deadrise side console. My question is my yamaha controls flush mount to right side and I would like to flush mount them to left side of my console, is there a way to flip or reverse around or do I have to buy new controls. I believe it is a 6x0 series and I saw no where on net where thay specify right or left side????????

best I remember the 6X6 flush mount can only be mounted on the stbd side.

however the handle can be repositioned and mounted on the left side of a console would be the same as the stbd side of the hull.

Maybe it's not the same, but with the Yamaha 703 controls, the shift/throttle handle can be mounted on the other side.

I had to do that, just recently.

vastly different than the 701,703 or 704 controls.

Thanks, I think I will buy a side mount and flip handle around!
Thanks again for the advice!
