What's the secret in removing the control box. Doesn't seem to have enough room to come out? Thanks

haven't worked on an f16 exactly, but I have worked on its nearly identical twins, sugar sand heat/tangos... I'm GUESSING that you have to take the front plate off, and shove the whole thing into the hole, and then bring it out through the front console. (obviously have to open that up) That also means you may have to disconnect the cables at the back of the boat first, if there isn't enough length.

If you are trying to get it out of the hole it normally sits in, yeah, not going to fit.

Not much of a picture, but it gives you an idea... The black part is outside, the rest of the thing mounts inside, with the gunwal between them.
