Reply To: 1937 Evinrude Fisherman, lever on faceplate?

It’s a sort of a bumper to keep it from shaking to violently while trolling. . .

Thanks, Gary, I was hoping you’d chime in. So it presses up against the tiller handle, metal to metal, and that doesn’t scare off the fish? I thought it would hook onto something somewhere. or that they had extra levers at the factory and they bolted these on just for more bling.
