All you need to do is obtain a foot throttle setup and potentially a longer cable.

This is very common on cruiser style boats and fishing craft.

You could potentially re use the shift portion of the existing control, but may opt out and use a more common Morse style.

You need a throttle assembly that is compatible with the 3300 (or old Morse 33C) style cables.

You could probably sell your existing control for enough money to change your stuff to what you want providing you go used.

Try to sell your existing control up north. Oregon/Washington area.

Good luck

X2, I have one that has 4 cables to it (Kinda weird and even Morse didn't know what it was, twin jet deal). Pretty common, really. Nordic454 had one. Basically the engine is in idle in "N", reverse bucket about halfway, then revs up and opens the reverse bucket at the same time in "forward", also revs up and fully closes the reverse bucket in "reverse" is how it's supposed to work. They are sorta sought after outside the Southwest here.

OOOOOOOOOOOK !
NOW I GET IT!
My Hallett had the same deal .
The first half of the stroke, forwards or backwards,  works the bucket and beyond that the throttle kicks in.
All I did was disconnect the throttle cable and put it in a foot pedal and BOOM!
I was in buisness.

Yes yes. But... my set up is if you hit the shifter it starts to open the throttle so maybe I just need some major adjustments or foot pedle but I dont think my cable will be long enough.  Thanks I will play with it tomorrow

The double one I have also moves the throttle part as soon as you start moving the handles. It's a Morse unit. But you could possibly adjust (Loosen) the throttle cable so it works like Beerjet's did.

Some like them, some don't. I imagine it's the preferred method with the white-water group, etc as GT said. Most of us prefer foot throttles (Assuming it's left side drive) Converting should be as easy as those two said.
