One of the shift cables on my pontoon broke. It looks easy to remove and route the new one through but is there some sort of exact adjustment to be done afterward?

It won't be hard at all. I recommend removing the old cables first and measuring them to make sure you geting the right length.

Take digital pictures of the cable before you take it off. Alot of pics will help you when you replace. Take varioys angles so you have a good reference when replacing. It is great to pull up pics and enlarge it when stuck on assembling something you took apart.

Make a note how it is adjusted when attached.

I've go my camera ready. I didn't think it looked too difficult. I hope I can find a replacement cable somewhere around the lake on Saturday.
