[QUOTE="JPB, post: 376224, member: 16511"] I converted my whaler to a tiller steer. I bought an aluminum bass boat with a 1999 40 HP mercury that was setup with a console. I wanted the aluminum boat to be set up all electric so I removed the console, engine and fuel tank. I then purchased a tiller arm and ignition switch from mercury for about $600. The conversion was very simple...the tiller arm bolted on and the ignition switch and choke plugged in. It was very simple and made the boat much more usable for the fishing I do. The gear shift came with the tiller arm in the conversion kit but on the mercury it is not built in to the tiller arm. The gear shift bolts on and you connect the linkage. (very simple). The throttle linkage obviously comes out of the tiller arm and also is very easy to connect. I am sure your conversion would be similar. [/QUOTE]
