I'm thinking about buying this motor:

The owner says that the throttle is NOT on the tiller handle but is combined
into the shifter lever, the more forward you pull that handle the faster the
motor goes. This is something I've not seen before.
Do any of you have experience with these? Can you confirm what the seller is
telling me? Also; are these a pretty decent little motor? I'd be using it on a
12' alum V bow boat, if I get it.

Thanks for your help.

This is the norm arrangement for any boat with a helm and steering
wheel, since your 12' Jon boat does not, you should not purchase this
motor and look for a OB with the throttle on the tiller.
