    Thanks guys. Halfway answered my question, at least. Guess I'll be on the look out for a tiller handle. And might have a console and steering cable for a Yamaha 60 for sale soon.

    The shrimp are the last reason I like to go. Get to hang with pops and brother, get to be on the water, only stress is dodging crab traps and not running out of beer, and not losing the poles!

    "Sleeping in" helps with the hangover should you party a bit too hard the night before (or fall overboard while catching bait).

    I grew up running a tiller handle shrimping with my Dad. Ain't nothing to it but to do it!!!

    Tiller handle with the reverse and forward in the handle works fine. Reverse forward on the side is a pain in the ass.

    If you put pen to paper, you would sell all your hunting and fishing stuff and just go out to eat all the time.
