Fig. 5 - DETERMINING CABLE LENGTH

Build a wooden boat

For a single motor, add A, B, and C dimensions and deduct 20" from the total.For dual motors, measure as for single and add 1/2 of the motor spacing distance. Inboard and outdrive installations, measure along the actual cable routing from the centerline of the wheel to the hook-up point at the tiller or the steering lever. Deduct 18" from the total. If the resulting measurement is 3" or more over the even foot, order the next longest cable. Cables are available in 1' increments only.
