It's a stick steering boat; the motor controls are on the right side. I really don't like where they put it; it's down really low. I can take off the access cover and pull the switch out just a little, but I've probably got to take a lot of the boat apart to get it out and replace it. That's a job I think I could do, but I'm not sure which switch I would need. I followed a Yamaha link and the switch it led me to was $259 + shipping. But then I found a generic switch that was only $50.

I would just change the switch if the $50 will work.
