Hi all,<br /><br />I just got a 2005 Crestliner 1850 Sportfish rigged with a Yammy 150. Now Crestlerner now owned by Brunswick Corp. is only selling boats with Mercs which Brunswick also owns. But I got the dealer to call Crestliner and request the boat be rigged for a Yammy.<br /><br />So there I am in my Yammy rigged boat up on Greenwood Lake and someone tells me I have a Merc Throttle!!! When I ask the dealer she says its an aftermarket made by some company that "Makes Most of them".<br /><br />Anyone have Merc Throttle's? Any problems?

Re: THROTTLE

All of them make controls that can be used on any brand now, except for the wiring. But there is an adapter so that you can use a Merc Control on a Yamaha. Some of the Mercs are made largely by Yamaha, so the adapters were intended for those. But as far as I know, they'll work will most Yamahas.
