Atomic 4 shift cable

[geoatk]

My shift cable rotted for my Ericson 27 Atomic 4 tiller model. Can anyone tell me the cable I need? Is it the 4300 or the 6400 with 5/16 ends and the clamp type?

Shift Cable

My mechanic just pulled the frozen cable out of my (new) 1971 29 and reported it was a 6400 series Teleflex, 5/16, clamp on both ends. Searching I found that has been replaced with a newer model, CC695. He is ordering a custom one from someplace in Seattle because the shortest off the shelf he can file in the Portland area is about 4' too long.

Cable Found

Thanks, I got one from Davey's Locker in Long Beach. Can't believe how much better it shifts now.
