Sadly no.
As they are fly by wire the next person would have to purchase a single control unit.
I may have a power head off a 4.2 litre 300hp but by the look of it this may not fit

Yamaha 250hp
Looking for a Yamaha 250hp 4 stroke engine but it needs to be the older 3.3 litre model and be fly by wire.
I would prefer a single engine but would consider a pair/twin rig.
Thanks
