Re: stiff cables
the only thing that is available to grease is the linkage on the engine and the linkage on your shift/throttle module. when not in use for periode of time they become stiff, use the boat more or play with the shift/throttle weekly to keep it moving freely. I had to replace mine ( 2004 2302 Pro w/ Merc 150 Salt Water carbed motor )after the 4th yr, because I let her sit for about 10 months. there 18' cables and it took 2 of us too do the job, their cable straped onto the inside hull.
