Gaffrig, uhmm excuse me, Livorsi Marine sells an offset fiberglass box in standard colors that allows you to mount offshore controls.

Here's a picture of a slightly modified "In Control" setup.. Offshore controls but it's a gunnel mount instead of a flat mount.

Hey Dave,
Can you give a little more info about that control, or provide a link. Thanks in advance.

That is sweet ,I would do that in a minute ,The shifter on there now works wonderful in the drive way but when I launch and try to send the wife on her way the button sticks and it wont go into gear but only when your in the water of course .Thanks Dave for the info ,if possible let me know where to get it .THANKS DJ
