Recommended Posts

We would just like to say thank you for adding us to your forum.

We're still finding our way through all the posts etc.Β 

I'm sure as time goes by, we shall be posting something ourselves.

Oh and BTW, does anyone happen to have a "SidePower" 8950G control panel going cheap. 😁

Hi Sean and Ben, do you have a wiring diagram? chances are a couple of well chosen switches will do the same job and just control a remote contactor near the thruster much the same as a windlass, my trip tab control died and cheapest option was Β£120, 2 mom-off-mom 2 pole switches did the job and including an etched plate to cover the original hole and house the new switches cost less than Β£20 and looked better.

πŸ˜ƒ We're currently connecting the terminals with a piece of wire, which works fine. We also know where we can buy a replacement AND the cost!!

Hence our cheeky question 🫒

We will more that likely replace like for like but asked on the off chance.

Thanks for your message.

Welcome,

One thing you will learn is, boat and cheap, are not in the same dictionary.

Enjoy

We're only new to this forum, not the cost of sailing πŸ˜ƒ

Prince Philip once described sailing as, standing fully clothed in the shower ripping up five pound notes. πŸ˜ƒ

Thanks for your message.
