[Rhodes22-list] repowering Fretless

[Mary Lou Troy]

Lou,
The cables go under the seats, up and over the edge of the laz and 
then out the gas boot in the transom. You may not have the gas boot. 
Because of all the angles, the Honda dealer who helped us with the 
original installation recommended that we go with the premium cables. 
We were able to reuse them for the Yamaha. Haven't had any problems 
with them. I think the original installation was 2001.
