Auto Gearbox Selector.....Linear Actuator??

If I were going to do something like this - I'd use a large RC servo to move the actuator / Push/Pull the cable. Servos are very reliable and waterproof - so should be pretty reliable.

For control, I'd use a microcontroller which spits out the right PWM for the servo positions associated with the different gears. Then use a series of push buttons to select the individual gears as required.

For extra security its probably possible to add a PIN code using the buttons before it will let you move it out of park.
