Dealer will install teleflex steering cable but needed length to order. I cannot find it under helm or at the engine, lookingin all areas suggessted. Has anyone replaced cable on aforementioned set up and what was the length of the cable

A number should be embossed in the old cable every couple of feet and should include the length.

Example:
6018 = 18 foot cable

The dealer should be able to figure it out.

I will be trailering boat to dealer and he wants to have cable on hand. Traveling a ways to get there and I am promised it will be installed while I wait so option of having them figure it out while there and possibly not having length of cable needed on hand would be disastrous.
Looked under console for the number that Kriz saidf would be embossed every couple of feet but their are a series of numbers along the cable, some 4 digits, some five, one in particular with CA11

My fault.
I was thinking about the throttle and shift cables by teleflex.
