Hi, I am redoing the vinyl on my boat. I need to separate the throttle lever from the mechanism on the other side of the side board. This is so I can re-vinyl that part of the boat. I have a 1987 Regal 233xl. There were four screws that i already removed. There are still 4 very large Philips screws that seem to be holding the whole thing. Any help. Thanks Roman

ok! it sounds like by the description, that your working with a merc control box.(flush mount) first remove the throttle/shift handle.ther will be a allen screw at the very bottom of handle.once handle is removed remove the 4 scews and voila! you may hve some trim wire and/or safety switch to disconnect as well. paul
