Is it normal for the throttle cables to be extended into the starboard side bow storage area? Was checking out my 2014 AR192 and noticed two cables that lead from the throttle and make a big loop into the bow storage area before going below deck and to the stern. See pics below.

Thanks!

It's normal for the loop, only it is usually in the helm storage area.

Thanks. I figured that, but they seem to lay into the storage area. They're stiff so I can't shove them into the help area. Is it ok to push them up some, behind the dash?

I would think you can move them as long as you don't kink or make too tight of a loop. Yours may have been replaced at some time and the excess lengths were not looped where the factory normally did it.

Thank you that makes sense. Appreciate your response
