Bud... It does not have the control box with it because the contol box on my boat worked my big motot as well as my kicker. I do have the linkage. It is elec start. It was only run in salt the beggining of last year. I bought my boat out of Nevada and that was where it got its use. It also is a long shaft. It looks brand new under the hood. I will work on getting some pics up/
