Disconnect the cable from the shift arm on the transmission and see if the arm moves freely. Also then see if the shifter at the wheel moves freely. One won't! If it's at the wheel inspect the cable for kinks, if none is suspect rust on the cable ... Time to replace. If the transmission lever is the cause, the transmission needs to be looked at.

Shifter is located on the binnacle forward of the wheel. I had the boat in the water for 1 season and used a 12" long handle to give the leverage needed to shift. Wife often can't manage as too much pressure is needed to shift from neutral, reverse, forward. Atomic 4 engine...transmission unknown. Thoughts?
