Can a tiller be converted to a regular console steer? Just wondering. All the good deals seem to be on tillers
Will eventually be looking for one something like this
2004 MERCURY 9.9 FOUR STROKE OUTBOARD MOTOR - eBay (item 160563988651 end time Mar-31-11 19:13:14 PDT)
You rig up linkage to connect your tiller kicker motor to your big motor....then you can use your steering wheel. You will not need a kicker if you get a 80 lb. thrust Terrova with I-Pilot.
I've heard that about the linkage but was more concerned about throttle. I'm guessing that people do this?
Throttle...... your gonna be trolling right? Get a low idle speed control for your kicker, dial in your desired speed and troll on. It would be cheaper, less to fool with , easier etc........with a Terrova
ES take G"s advice on this one.Quote:

That's what I am planning on doing.Quote:
