New M Outboard Install Help
Looking for some photos that show good detail of Outboard Install. About to have Dealer Install New Merc 50 Bigfoot on my new M, and he has never seen a Macgregor 26M. The plan is to use the Uflex controller just like in the sales booklet. Would like some photos of how things are supposed to look in the rear berth, battery box, motor well, etc. and anything else you all think may be helpful. Photos are worth a thousand words, so a thousand thanks to all.

my pedestal make sure your shift control unit is as far forward on the pedestal as poss so as if you want to move up to a bigger steering wheel later you'll have enough clearance when pulling the shifter back
