2000 23v , Took the boat out for the first time, and it seems the throttle is sticky. It's def not smoothe . Makes loading it on the trailer pretty difficult because it's not easy going back and forth from fwd to reverse... any tips or things to adjust/check out/ lube ?

Replace both the shift and throttle cable and it will change your life.Fixing everyone elses boat just so I can use mine... -
Throttle and steering cables are wear items. When they wear out you can try to lube them up. This is done by getting on a tall ladder or going onto a balcony and hanging the cable vertically. You pour some oil or transmission fluid into the internal workings and let gravity run its course. It’s just a bandaid fix or redneck fix over doing it right and replacing the cable. I personally think if your going through the effort to remove it from the boat you might as well replace it.Comment
