The Yamaha 704 is very nice. I had one on two of my boats.

The cables are not Whaler branded rather Teleflex. They have two versions, many recommend the Extreme. I have run the basic cables on 3 boats for 20 years. No complaints.

As for the shifter and cables, it is a question of the "ends" of the cables. Each cable needs the proper end for the shifter and the engine.

See this for example.

You just need to ensure you get the proper end of the shifter you pick and the ends for the engine.

Also, if you select the Yamaha shifter, you will need to map the trim circuit wiring in the harness to the proper pins in the Shifter harness.

A Yamaha shop can help you with that.
