Post Dumb question....
Ive never been in a mud boat before.... What is the metal lever next to the steering wheel on the console models of gator tail boats?? It looks almost like it has a cable attached to it..... What does this do?

If that is the throttle, do you have to throttle up when you turn like you do in an airplane?

I have seen a couple of gatortail center console with a revers lever on the side of console not on the console where the throttle is located. I'm pretty sure that's what the man is speaking of.

If its the lever its the same thing the pedal is now used for... I think they are using the pedal now instead of the lever??
