Hello, I am in the market for a less then 15 year old Catalina 250 or Hunter 25.
I found a reasonably priced Catalina 250 Wing keel with tiller steering.
Most C250 I have seen have a wheel.
1) Is it possible to modify the tiller steering to a wheel at a reasonable cost? If yes what are the options ?
2) Do you think that the tiller might be a better option for this size boat?
3) On this particular boat, the outboard engine has no controls in the cockpit. (Honda 9.9hp Outboard motor, extra long shaft)
Can I add wiring to have gear shifting and throttle control in the cockpit, or do I need a different engine for that?
Thanks for your help.
