As for the throttle cable - I've never heard of another one breaking.

Happens quite often unfortunately, gear shifters also.

I once completed a cruise on a C & C 39 with the owner's wife below
doing the F _ N _ R thing using a mop handle with a hook screwed into

Happened to us twice in the BVI with a Moorings boat.. two times in two
days.
