A tiller is for controlling a marine drive. The tiller has a base bracket assembly and a tiller arm which is extends outwardly from the base bracket assembly. The base bracket assembly is configured to facilitate yaw adjustment of the tiller arm, in particular into and between a variety of yaw positions relative to the base bracket assembly. The tiller arm has a grip restraining device which is located on the bottom of the middle portion of the tiller arm and is manually accessible from both sides of the tiller arm. The grip restraining device is specially configured to selectively restrain rotation of a hand grip on the outer end of the tiller arm. The tiller arm also has a tilt mechanism which facilitates tilting of the tiller arm relative to the base bracket assembly into and between a variety of tilt positions, including a straight upward tilt position and a straight downward tilt position.

A throttle device is for a marine engine. The throttle device has a throttle body with a through-bore for conveying air for combustion in the marine engine. A throttle plate is movable into and between a closed position in which the throttle plate prevents airflow through the through-bore and an open position in which the throttle plate allows the airflow through the through-bore. A restrictor device located is adjacent to the throttle plate. The restrictor device restricts the airflow through the through-bore when the throttle plate is moved out of the closed position.
