If I had to choose one, which would you recommmend?

KYGrady knows the original part number but you can’t find anywhere as it was discontinued about 2-3 yrs ago. Think it was 3500 series Take your light off and measure the base with what you have. You can compare the measurements to the spec in their catalog. The one I got was a better fit...

I just bought these and installed them on my 2000 228. They are smaller than the originals but Attwood discontinued the prior version that was a direct size replacement. I haven’t replaced the anchor light yet but forgot where my research took me. I’ll need to measure again...

Please share if you do something other than cutting off those terminals that look to be rusted out. I’ve tried PB blaster on various rusted parts but never any luck getting them to loosen on my boat. I’ve resigned to cutting and replacing

Out of curiosity, did you have any wires going through the top of the metal and your hardtop? I have an old gps disc sitting on top and I’m debating if it’s worth removing and filling a hole im assuming is about an inch wide. Thought I could just plug with a bolt as a quick job but the...

FamilyAffair - Based on what I learned, you’ll need to find some quiet time and review all of the quotes when you receive them. I learned that each company assesses the value differently, some go with agreed value vs cash value vs replacement value. It’s frustrating as you think you are...

1. Blue seas Dual Circuit Battery switch….By far my favorite update as it keeps my engine and electronics on separate circuits 2. Flush mounted 2 Simrad GO9s 3. TBD -Nothing else was as satisfying as those updates…Ignoring the SS cockpit drains, new fuse panels, etc

I have Boat US/ Geico. Been very happy with them and even pleasantly surprised as I was expecting by premium to go up given the communication they sent to everyone about a significant rate increase…Mine went down by a good amount. No claims so far but they are willing to work with you to...

And…the order ultimately goes to TH Marine based on the confirmation text I just received

FYI - Just bought two as it’s only a matter of time before that bolt on my 2000 228 breaks off and it’s all rusted so taking off won’t be easy…. anyways, I bought from fishbrain free shipping plus 20% off so got 2 for 70 with tax included...

Congrats on the boat!

By extension, it is just the metal rod and not the yellow handle that is shown in the pic right?

Try Great Lakes Skipper. They have a few of those switches from McGill. I have a couple that are not in great shape and I’m debating on just getting a whole new panel since I want to convert my 2000 228 panel to black. I have the same switches as you and didn’t have much luck looking for...

Hope he closes this thread out with a detailed summary of the work, something along the lines of “Job done”

I have a Fisher cover for my 228 and love it. Just ask about the different materials as I believe the greenish color is a little lighter. Throwing the cover on top of the hardtop is a tough one man job.
