boat junkyard??

[ddavis90325is]

I'm looking to build a console for my new boat. does anyone know of where i can go to get used remote steering parts for the console. Steering parts, and cables for the throttle, shifter. Do most marinas have "junkyards"? thanks!

Yep, but usually the cost 1/2 the price of new. So it might be worth just getting all new at that point. But it never hurts to ask, you just might get a deal.

If you find Steering Parts,+ Cables in a Junk Boat,.......<br />Those parts are Probably Junk Too.......<br /><br />That kind of Stuff,.. Just Goes Bad from sitting,...<br />And they Ain't Servicable parts,.... Oil it All you want,+ They're Still Junk.......<br /><br />A New Helm,+ Cable are about the Most Inexpensive things on a boat to Replace,...... Buy New.....

Here in St Pete there are a couple of marine salvage yards that actually do a good job of removing parts and cataloguing them. I just bought a set of throttle, shift, and steering cables for a 16' boat I sold. All of the cables were in great shape, and all 4 cables cost me less than $50.00
