Choosing the wrong marine replacement part can stall your repair. The Teleflex Type 400 19Ft Shift Control Cable and the Pro Boat Retriever System Tug 30 replacement part cover different boats, so the right choice depends on which repair job you are doing. This head-to-head compares fit, condition, and price so you can pick the part that matches your boat.
Quick verdict
If your outboard uses a Johnson/Evinrude shift or throttle cable and you need a 19-foot replacement, choose the Teleflex Type 400 CC17019. If you are repairing a Pro Boat Retriever System Tug 30, choose the PRB281112 replacement part. These are not interchangeable parts. The price range in this comparison spans $33.00, from the lower-priced Pro Boat part to the higher-priced Teleflex cable.

Where each product wins
Teleflex Type 400 19Ft Shift Control Cable wins when an outboard control cable replacement is the task. It is described as a Johnson/Evinrude control cable, and the 19-foot length gives you room for shift or throttle routing. The manufacturer part number CC17019 makes it straightforward to confirm you are ordering the cable intended for that job.
Pro Boat Retriever System Tug 30 PRB281112 wins when you need a replacement part for the Pro Boat Retriever System Tug 30. It carries model PRB281112, is compatible with Pro Boat, and is listed as new. It is the lower-priced option in this head-to-head, sitting at the low end of the comparison range.
Product notes
Teleflex Type 400 19Ft Shift Control Cable Part# CC17019
This control cable is aimed at Johnson/Evinrude outboard shift or throttle cable replacement. It is listed as new old stock, which means the part is unused but the packaging may show minor storage wear. The manufacturer part number is clearly stated, so you can match it to your repair order. Pick it when you need a specific outboard control cable and your application calls for a Teleflex Type 400 cable. The main limitation is the condition note: because this is new old stock, the outer packaging may not be showroom-clean, even if the cable itself is unused. If a pristine box matters to you, that is a consideration. Otherwise, the cable is the direct replacement part for this job.
Pro Boat Retriever System Tug 30 PRB281112
This replacement part is explicitly made for the Pro Boat Retriever System Tug 30 and is compatible with Pro Boat. The UPC 605482673140 is included on the part, which helps you confirm it is the right unit for your tug. It is listed as new, and the age level is 17 years and up. Choose it when your repair is a Tug 30 and you want a new, model-specific replacement part rather than a generic cable. The limitation is that its application is narrow: it is not an outboard control cable and it is not a universal marine part, so it will only fulfill that one Pro Boat tug model. That makes it a good fit if you already own the Tug 30 and a poor fit for any other repair.
Final choice by use case
- Outboard control cable replacement: Teleflex Type 400 19Ft Shift Control Cable, because it is a Johnson/Evinrude shift or throttle cable with part number CC17019.
- Pro Boat Retriever System Tug 30 repair: Pro Boat Retriever System Tug 30 PRB281112, because it is a new replacement part with model PRB281112 and Pro Boat compatibility.
- If you are still undecided: match the part to the boat in front of you. The control cable cannot fix a Tug 30, and the Tug 30 part cannot replace an outboard shift cable.
