Please note that the PICTURE UPLOAD function is not working. The iBoats Forum Moderators are working with the system administration folks at the parent company to get the issue resolved. This happened about a year ago and here we are again. In the meantime you can post photos as links to a picture hosting site of your choice. We are sorry about the inconvenience and will advise when the issue is resolved. Thank you for your patience.
Time to get new control cables for my '74 Johnson 50. These cables and motor did not come with this boat so it is kind of a guessing game. How does this cable loop look at the motor? Should I order cables an extra foot longer?
^^^+1 the length looks fine. Unless, as stated above, they are being pulled into a tight bend causing them to bind when you crank the engine hard over you should be fine.
