ok, i have about a 1959, 14ft lonestar Malibu (aluminum runabout);a 1957 35 hp Evinrude. i need to know the size, kind, brand even?...of steering cable to go up to the steering console....and....i don't want to spend too much money. Need your feedback. want to get this baby in the water...
I mean, Is the tiller removable on all motors so they can be controlled by steering from up front? I'd like to use an older motor , as old as the boat (1959 or 60) but utilize the steering wheel at the dash along with the controls.
It's late fifties, 14 ft. aluminum, stripped down. Need to know what motor and hp (used) to look for; a source for steering parts, cables, guages, etc. any treatment of the inside to seal, advice for flooring, etc. Appreciate you veteran runabout owners' advice for a beginner. thank you.
