Would be a little tough to find a boat that size with a side console but they do exist. I have seen one console rig that was a pull start but it made for a pretty tricky starting sequence.You would need to find or build a console first, then measure for your cables. Steering cables are available in pretty much any length, and you can get them with the steering gear. Same for the control cables. Converting the outboard to remote controls, especially one that size, will be the difficult part. And that's not including the electric start bits. As far as that goes, its usually way easier and cheaper to find an electric start parts motor with a bad lower unit or blown powerhead and steal all of the parts from it.</blockquote>
