At 14' you may want to go with the tiller motor, just for the extra room it will free up in the boat.

I think the console and steering wheel may be just that. No controls or steering and throttle cables. After you add all that in, it would be cheaper to go to a 16' tiller on a trailer for around the $5100 mark vs. $6-6500 for a 14' with steering.
This with the bigger outboard.

Great advice.
