I have been busting *ss to get this thing on the water this weekend but I keep running into little issues that are making it difficult.

Last night I got my steering in and started on the wiring.

Today I put the motor back together and got it mounted, now tomorrow I need to install the fuel system and wire the boat.

Is that a Porsche I see? Lol... I like the cable steering setup, do you just run aircraft cable and pulleys for that? Are the wing plates easy to come by? There must be a different helm setup too.... Since I need a new setup, I'd like to get better informed on what's out there, and I like the retro look of the cables and pulleys...

Bookmarked it, thank you. I found a ride guide system, less cables, for 50 bucks. I'll run that for a while, but glad to know where to look for the cable/pulley setup.
