I'm repowering my 1985 18 outrage with a 2015 Mercury 150 [FourStroke] and would like to know what i need to purchase for a control cable length and what prop would work best on this boat. Switching from a 2004 yamaha 2 stroke. Thanks for any information possible [edited to covert to lowercase, no yelling please.] Edited by Phil T on 04/05/19 - 7:30 AM

The existing cable should have the model # stamped on the end of the sleeve. The last 2 digits indicate length. Steering cables for single engine install is 18' cf: http://www.whalercentral.com/forum/vi...ad_id=6596 1992 Outrage 17 I 2019 E-TEC 90, Viper 17 2+ 2018 Load Rite Elite 18280096VT
