Followon to Norm's inquiry: problem I have is, where to install the remote? I've seen pics of 240s that have a side mount model, installed starboard on the cockpit backrest - this to me is the most natural place to put it, except for not being able to lean back comfortably at that point. But, looking from underneath, there's a solid mass of blown-in foam behind the backrest, so I'm puzzled as to how these installs were done. Did they dig out a bunch of that foam to make clearance for the controls and cables? I checked with my dealer and he said he's been installing them in the stern side kick panel directly under the tiller. I think this is an awkward position, but definitely an attractive option.My thinking is to avoid drilling into fiberglass altogether, and bolt a panel to the stern seat rail and mount the remote to it (with a little prettying up of course). Anybody have any other comments about how their's was done?Thanks, Brian
