Does anyone have the measurements for throttle cables handy? Ours are in rough shape…. Not sure how much of a difference it will make. We put new throttles in and got three more knots out of the top end…..

Wow.
Your old throttles must have been really heavy.

It doesn’t hurt to change put cables in rough shape.


But if doing to see if you gain more cable travel…have someone manually goose the throttle at carb or throttle body / terminal end and see what if anything gained.


At dock, with motors off, pin the throttles and see how much additional travel you have at terminal end. Travel points are also adjustable.
