Hi JP. I don't have pictures of the control mount yet, but can describe it
enough for you to be able to install. I hung the controls under the Port
cockpit seat on it's side by screwing it into the fiberglass stringers that
run under the seat. It' was not the easiest installation due to the space
constraints but doable. There is a an open space aft of that to run the
control cables directly into the lazarette.  I had to reverse the controls
for left side mounting, and spaced it close enough to the inside edge of
the seat so that in neutral the controls lever sticks out from under the
seat, but pushing it full forward or reverse the control lever is hidden
under the seat, sailing.  After a year of use I'm very happy with the
installation.  I reach under and feel for the key to start or stop the
motor, and leave the key and safety toggle in because they're basically
hidden from any wondering eyes.
Hope that helps
