I have a small Seabright 270 8' 10" inflatable that I would like to set up some kind of console steering/throttle system on. I plan to use a 9.9 4 stroke, but all the short shaft models I have looked at are only available with tiller steer. I know Yamaha has control boxes that can be used for throttle and gear shifting, but I can't find a whole bunch of information about how the remote steering setups work and if any modifications are needed to attach one to a tiller-steer outboard.
My boat has a sectional aluminum floor, so I'll either have to come up with some kind of a bracket to wedge in between the pontoons to hold the steering wheel, or maybe I could fabricate a bracket to attach to the removable "seat" bar that can be used in the middle of the boat.
Any suggestions or ideas would be a great.
Thanks
