I think that is Morse cables but Teleflex are just as good.  Make sure you
get a cable with the right throw.a cable with a 4 inch throw is usually
adequate

Subject: Stus-List Shift cable removal 1983 C&C 37

 

Mac, the cables (at least on my boat) are called Morris cables.  The cable
consists of a outer housing and an inner core that transfers the motion from
the shift cable to the transmission.  The outer housing is usually clamped
to something solid on both ends so that the inner core is free to move
within the outer housing.  If this cable goes around a sharp corner or is
bent it will be hard to move.  I have replaced my transmission cable about
15 years ago.  The connection within the pedestal is a royal PITA!  You have
to remove the wheel, the compass, and the compass support collar (as I
recall).  Sounds like a job for a nice warm spring day--if one ever comes..
