Can I use a dual function control in a dual station boat?
No. It is not recommended. Use of dual function controls for twin stations can result in a binding problem and is a complex, difficult installation in the best circumstances. Instead, use one single function dual lever control per engine at each station. We have several from which to choose, but recommend the CH5600P, a state of the art mechanical control specifically designed to work smoothly in twin station boats. Single function controls for twin stations are set up with the cables “in series”. This means that each cable is run from one lever of an upper station control to the corresponding lever of the lower station control. Another cable is then run from the lower station control to the engine. When the cables are properly connected, moving the levers at one station will move the levers at the other station in addition to actuating throttle and shift. Shift detents should be used in the lower station control(s) (closest to the engine) only. Do not install shift detents in the seco
