6th is of the land & sea foot throttle I added apx. 9 years ago. Installed on the left side for I could thru bolt it in the ski locker.And I was able to run the cable down the locker under the tank for a nealy invisble installation when the front pads are in.It took 2 seconds to get used too.


The last pic I just found to be funny! Its of that one area that we all have on board.The place we hide the beads from you know who.

P.S. Can you ever have enough coozies!

holy crap i have coozies and beads in the same exact place hidden from the same exact you know who! great pictures, I wondered what it looks like under my fuel tank, I spent the past month completely re-wiring mine it had a mess of wires from the last owner but now it is all new and clean. -shane
 
Yeah, The land and sea trottle is the only one made that allows for that. I wouldn't have it any other way. Its nice for when you choose to putt around.
