Thread subject: Whaler Central - Boston Whaler Boat Information and Photos :: Hard to shift

I just purchased a 2007 150 Montauk with a 60 Mercury 4 -stroke and having much trouble shifting. Bringing the shifter back into neutral from forward is very hard and when pulling hard it will then go but all the way into reverse. This is our first outboard (have twim inboards in a 28') and not sure if this is normal (hope not) or a shifting adjustment issue or a engine linkage/gear issue. Any help would be greatly appreicated. Thanks
