Heres the Question buddy can i use a motor with the hand throttle??? If so what do i do but the hardware or somethin??

That will depend on the motor you have.Your motor will need to come from the manufacture for remote steering and throttle.You will need the throttle lever box,cable,and throttle connectors for your specific motor.There is really no universal system.If your motor wasn't available from the manufacture with the remote steer option,you will have to fabricate your own system.I would have to see the boat with the motor mounted to be able to give any ideas on how to set up the steering,gear shifting,and throttle.
