I asked Skater to come up with a solution to my trim switch dilema. I had no room on my dash and with 4 engines, I didnt like the idea of having all of them wired to the throttles. I like what they came up with pictured here (not completely wired yet)

Looks great, what all are you having Skater do at the factory for you if you don't mind me asking.

Is that the only trin switch ? Why not have one throttle switch with diodes and use those four to make a + or - bump to even out .

KK, I wont be using the trim that much. With my past experience, most outboard cats seem to run the best when trim is set level with running surface. I just wanted it close to steering wheel in case i need to bump it a bit.

I started reading this thread last night and just finished it. This is an amazing project. Are you keeping up with your costs or are you throwing the recites in a box?
