Overview

This is a no-trim dual control meant for boats that keep things basic and dependable. It’s a mechanical Gen II console control for twin engines, the kind a lot of shops still like because there’s less to go wrong. The levers have a solid feel and move the way you expect them to. Once it’s set up right, it usually stays put. It works well on boats that run inboards, outboards, or a mix, as long as there’s no power trim involved.

Performance & Practical Benefits

Running two engines with this control feels balanced and predictable. Both sides respond evenly, which makes slow maneuvering and docking a lot less stressful. Idle control stays smooth, and you don’t feel like you’re fighting one engine more than the other. Once the cables are adjusted, it doesn’t need much attention.

Why Buy OEM

OEM Mercury controls are built around Mercury cable geometry, which matters more on dual setups than most people realize. Everything lines up the way it should, and both engines tend to stay in sync. The parts also hold up well to vibration and regular use. It’s usually the easier route compared to piecing something together.
