    I recommend a 2-lever remote box. If it’s not idling perfect, and/or if the idle is sometimes a bit uneven, you can increase throttle slightly to get a good speed to shift at so the motor doesn’t kill. Sometimes this is handy when the engine is cold to be able to give a bit more throttle for shifting. If you are running on a hydroplane, I’d just use a spring-loaded dead-man’s throttle for safety reasons, and no remote shift, as you can just reach back to shift it.
