So I loosened the 2 lower screws and water streamed down the bunk to the ground. Made a wet mark about the size of a quarter. Not sure if it actually came out of the holes, or was between the plate and hull.

Yes it is the ones mounted to the bottom of the hull. I just took the starboard side off and water actually dripped out. So, I don't have to drill out and re-glass? That would be awesome news!

I finally got to this issue. Pulled the port side trim tab and using the q-tip and paper towel I was able to determine there is moisture in most the the mounting screw holes. Now what? As a reminder the surveyor suggesting pulling the trim tabs, drill the mounting holes bigger, and putting...

Me too!

Newwiremarine.com has rocker style switches that turn off once you release them.

No they actually rely on them while traveling………

Thank you for the comment. I guess time will tell, but I do follow several yachting channel that sail the vast oceans and rely on IPADs or phone for navigation.

So I came across this idea which gives me navigation and saves me a lot of $$ verse a second graph. I hope this can help others.

Here is a before and after, I used newwiremarine.com as well. I built the new panel there and got the switch rockers from them and rewired it myself. The 3 old switches on there are current not to any thing. I'll replace them with new ones once I add more electronics.

Thank you for posting the link. My problem is I cannot reach the valves, so this would be too short. I guess I'm going to make my own.

Do you have a link for where you found this?

I need to make one of these for my 282!

Thank you!

What do you use to clean the fuel tanks?

What size Mantus anchor did you get?

Fun part is figuring out what if anything is operated by mystery switches/breakers. I used new wire to make my replacement panel and switch covers. I've got it all now, just have to re-install it all..

Thanks guys for the input, I really appreciate it!
